Wood i.d. please

It does look ashy.

We'll wait until the herniated ashkisser, I mean ash sniffer shows up to make a guess.

 

Definitely not white oak or cottonwood. Wish you had a leaf....I know...no leaves for deciduous trees. My college Forestry class was in the Fall, not winter, when there were leaves.

 

Norway Maple. Is this a tree from the woods or from town? I'll bet it is from town, right?

 

Looks like all the silver maples that end up in our town compost site.

 

It's from in town somewhere

 

That's definitely not silver maple.

 

I said Norway maple first.


Smell it, if it smells like fårikål the national food of Norway, then it's a Norwegian maple.

Whatever that smells like.

 

At the end of the day its firewood, dry it then burn it woo hoo

 

What NYCountry said

 

This^^^^

 

Sweet Gum! No doubt. I've dealt with way too much of it over the years.

 

Let us know how that works out for you.

 

My wife loves the splitter. She's very comfortable using it.

 

I thought lutefisk was the official food of Norway ?

 

No, there are actually lutefisk free zones in Norway. The tradition was used to preserve fish, a means to an end. If you will . It's a subsistence thing, not a culinary masterpiece.
