Cutting in Maine.

I'm at me brudder's, cutting some kind of birch. Grey or black. I do detect a bit of wintergreen scent, but not very strong.

I dropped it right where we wanted it.





Any guesses? There's some funny seed cones on it.






Fun time.

 

Yellow birch. Excellent firewood!

 

Ended up with a nice amount.

 

Thanks!

 

Love yellow birch.. that’s a little one; be sure to split it or it will rot

 

Thanks for all the input.

Nice to know it's good firewood. It's all around here. Not much of it around my property in Mass.

 

Yes yellow birch. I believe its comparable to black birch btu wise. I've seen them around here and maybe scored it 2-3 times.

 

Bigger yellow birch for reference

IME BTUs better than silver maple less than sugar maple
