    Bring on the rain and snow! It won't bother. Will you be covering the rest of it? And how do you have the tarp tied down?

    There are 2 skids not covered gonna haul some more in and then cover it, drove spikes into the splits at an angle then hooked the grommets on them, that seems to be the best way I've found to keep the tarps tight and not get torn apart by the wind.

    Nice BIG stack !
    5 cord ?
    Top covered & off the ground, ! ! :yes:
    the firewood gurus & even the scientific folks have proven
    "that's the best way to season & store firewood."
    Good to go & have good wood for 17/18 :)
