All of it was sitting on gravel so I put on a well used chain. I got six rounds, a little less than a quarter cord. I had fun. The log had a big crack down the middle and some of the wood was discolored from moisture/mildew. crack made for easy splitting.

    That ash was attacked by the borer but the wood looks like it is still good stuff.
