    Have you seen his shed? Or, his firewood "chute"?
    The system is impressive.

    All that's left is a pile of uglies to deal with.
    A mix of punky stuff, & lots of twisted gnarlies & funky pieces.

    Burn pit wood,
    Probably make a cord, but more air than wood
    No such thing as an ugly stack but this will be close LOL :)

    Went for a 24 mile bike ride.
    Got snowed on for 1/2 the ride.
    Rode N. Should've went West, better weather.

    Probably last of the year , no fat bike with studs ( yet............. :) )

    Nice Sunset over the woodshed & stacks when I got back:
