I did a couple of loads today before running to town, Soft or Hard Maple in pic 9506? I cut up the top in 9500, I fell the ice storm damaged tree in pic 9501. The 390 was throwing some nice chips, pic 9504.
I hope so, if not it still will make some good firewood. We'll have some company for a week, so I'll have a small break before jumping in the Brook next week, gotta clear more ice damaged trees out.
I was going to say red, but the leaf was off. Might have been out of the brook anyway with all the rain you'll be getting.
It lasted the melt we had this spring with a few other heavy down pours, this next rain won't move it.
Could be....... the leaf is a better match for it. The map on the link below puts it very close to zaps area. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_nigrum
Very interesting. I have a tree in my front yard that I know pre-dates my house indicating that it's native to where I live in So NH. Wasn't sure what it was for a while. Finally decided to sit down and work it out. Sure enough, it shows up as Black Maple per the guide I used below.. Outside of the range on the other link but matched what I came up with on this site: http://www.arborday.org/trees/whattree/WhatTree.cfm?ItemID=E22d Leaf Subject tree in the foreground Closeup of the leaves growing opposite each other. No plans to cut this one down. so we can't do a comparison of the innards..
