    I gave away about 10+ loads last week but brought 3 loads home today. All maple and should be a good start for 3 years from now. The pile in the back is all smaller rounds bucked up.

    That's a big load and it's logs so more wood there then if it's splits. If that's a 12' trailer then a load to the rails of splits is about 1.2 cord. But logs are normally 30% more wood, and he's well over the rails. My guess would be in the 2-2.5 cord
