Pine Trip

I have a another top off a Maple up in that area with another Sugar Maple that the wind broke off, I hauled some of the smaller chit out about a year ago, I tried hauling out some bigger rounds but it was so wet that I left them there, coming up the hill the back tires started to dig some trenches, not a good feeling so I left them.

When I was loading the rounds last night I saw some big rounds on the ground down from the spot I was working, I had forgot about it until yesterday, I'll get a picture today.

I think the best of the wood is still standing, I'll look for a new way in.

 

Here's the haul tonight, 30 rounds of Maple, I never did look at the tree it came off for leaf identification, weight wise it felt like Sugar.

 

That bark almost doesn't look like sugar Zap. If it is or it isn't, it'll still burn.

 

I'll double check the tree later today or tomorrow, when I was looking at the picture last night, I thought the bark looked like Butternut.

 

Nice load. Looks like a beautiful night to be in the woods

 

A few skeeters when I started cutting but nothing bad, never a bad day to be in the woods.

I'll start working on some other downed Maple this afternoon, it's near the Cherry I started.
