Stacked wood pictures, add to the gallery

Took some stacked wood pics today at 50°f

 

Not sure what I like the most. The stacks or the mountains. Very nice bogydave, very nice.

 

Wowsa. It warms the heart looking at those pics. Thanks, Dave.

 

Ahhhhhhh.

 

What a good feeling having all that wood ahead... Makes you want to keep getting more... That's money in the bank so to speak Looks great... Beautiful where you are!

 

How long is that stack? I'm very surprised it stays straight!

I modified the racks I have this summer so I have only about 8-10ft between uprights, figured it would be hard for it to lean. The wood I stacked this summer is all "wonky" already. I can only guess that it's moving from the wood drying out.
My goal is to be 5-6 years out on wood but I'm starting to wonder if it will be possible. I have no desire to restack wood several times!

 

I see a lot of hard work; great job Dave! Oh and nice mtns in the background...as always.

 

And 50 deg in AK in January??? I think all that cold weather went south for the winter!

 

Thanks

Length , I think near 70'.

 

Nice! Did you say freeeee woooood?

 

Dave, so how many years would that firewood last you now if you stopped getting more?

 

Figures to around 4ish cords in a row... 70ftx5x1.4= 495 cu ft. Year per row?

I delivered 12 cords to a customer this summer. They burn that AND ~15 tons of coal.
Works out to like 30 cords a year.

 

Snow is pretty high on the mountains for this time of year.

 

At the beginning of burn season it was a 4 year supply,
down to 3-1/2 years now.

 

Burn from 5.5 to 7 cords /season. ( 4 years with the cat stove)
this year keeps up like now, will burn on the low side.

Pretty loose stacked, I figure near 7 cord total stacked tight when it goes in the shed.
6 state cutting area, & a little over a cord of scrounges.

Wondering, as warm as it is , is it drying more this year than on average years ?
35 mph wind now, raining

 

I really appreciate seeing them mountain! I know sometimes we don't appreciate something like that if you see it everyday, but that picture is refreshing.

 

SWEET ! Pete

Nice variety of wood & color in your stacks.
