A pity that the GPS receiver elevation mask can't generally be made to 
be azimuth dependent.
You could then have a higher elevation limit in the direction of those 
trees.

However, it is possible in principle with an M12+T, M12M T or similar 
timing receiver which provides the relative timing contribution of each 
SV to the solution, to back out the contribution of a given SV and 
compute the corresponding timing correction for software correction of 
the PPS pulse timing.
