    My dad had his property/ sugarbush logged last year.

    Time to start cleaning up, or at the very least get the stuff off the trails. More than a lifetime of wood out there will rot before I get to most of it. (if anyone in the Elk Rapids area needs some let me know)

    Didn't load much, maybe a 1/2 cord, my trailer needs work, the tires are shot, and I was running out of time. All hard maple, wasn't even 20 yds into the woods.

    Beauty stuff right there. Pick away at it a little at a time until you get your fill (and then some) :) If I could hoard only one type of wood it would definitely be sugar maple.

    You're set for a long time, good stuff. I would go ahead and cut some into rounds, so at least it can be seasoning while it sits. :yes:

    Get after it and sell some instead of letting it rot
