    I'll stack them higher/squarer when I start refilling it in 5 years.
    8' wide, rounded to 6.5 tall for now.

    That is going to store a lot of wood; you will be on the 10 year plan.

    We don't get much snow anymore. 8-10" is about the deepest we've had in years. Used to get up to ~16". Ice storms have been the problem for the last 15 years. 1.5" of ice is very, very destructive.
    It felt fine when I was walking the roof screwing down the sheet metal for whatever that's worth.

    Are you using anything for the base of the piles?
    Pallets?

    Must be an optical delusion. My stacks look like poo compared to most I see on here.
