    Acer Saccharum, the indent between the lobes is rounded like a sugar bowl. Red will be cut at an angle.

    Thanks for that detail Paul. I hadn't noticed that, but I don't get a chance to see much sugar here.
    3 cords of that?

    Unless it was in the open and has lots of big branches, I'd guess less than 3 cords. Great score nonetheless. I'll take hard Maple any time. :yes:
