I thought recognized Jack Rabitts palace!!
Its the place where Briggs enters the white lodge.
Oh, let's just say it is, 'cuz it's cool.
Does have the same shape as the Purple Palace of E8 where the Fireman resides
Seriously, though, did the top of the tree "stump" resemble an owl, a rabbit, or the Ace of Spades symbol most?

Since the camera lingered on it, I thought the image on the playing card ... but then it could be rabbit ears

I thought the same. Definitely a throne.

I agree totally. It would be nice if we could have a side by side screen shot of both!
This scene and Twin Peaks generally interests me because of my work in forestry science and being a Seattle resident. Curiously, Mark Frost has a heavy dose of fact blended with the fiction in the Secret History which everyone living in western Washington knows who read it. Loads of Frost's locations and landmarks are exact to the street names, building names, everything.
JRP is a western red cedar, thuja plicata, and judging by the way it looks it must have fallen naturally many decades ago. It's nursing red huckleberries growing out of the top, which is normal. By its size it may have been a tree that lived a thousand years or longer. I think if Mark Frost checked any of those details out, it would have appealed to David's sense of mythology and mystery, as the fantastic throne-like appearance of the stump no doubt did. It could absolutely serve as an entrance point to the White Lodge.
That filming location is Olallie State Park, which if you visit North Bend is only 15 minutes away by car. I'm going to go find JRP this weekend, dammit.
Maybe not.
The stump's shape bears a striking resemblance to the tower in the purple sea, if you ask me... hence, Naido?

Nice observation, BF.
