We're all mad here.
I'm not sure about the "countered" part either and trees don't really have shoulders. I would almost use the metaphor for his chest or body instead, though that can run into pun territory as another name for torso is "trunk."

You could always go with something like "broad as the trees behind him" for example. It doesn't have to sound complicated.
