    With the EAB wreaking havoc in these parts, there is a ridiculous amount of dead or dying Ash trees around...my latest score is from a lady around the corner that had a few taken down, but couldn't afford to have it hauled away. Score!

    image.jpeg I've have about 10 cord worth I am currently working at my parents house. The one above was a monster. I'm still cutting on this one, then there are 4 more in the 30" range on the ground in the woods. I broke down and bought a 25 ton black diamond splitter because of all this wood. This is my Dad standing on the stump.

    Now that’s a tree that will heat most for the season ... I’ve seen people advertise in C-list “free wood , a winters worth of warmth - just remove the tree and it’s yours” and then you look at the pic at it’s an ash straight-up like a popsicle and you would be lucky to get enough to keep the house above freezing for the season !!!

    EAB, bad for ash trees, good for firewood hoarders.
    Nice haul, Rangerbait!
