    Got a whole lot of standing dry wood but i have never cut a tree like this. Im a little confused with this one. Bark is thin and flaky. Red pine??? Im pretty sure the tree still standing is the same kind 630A6BF5-45CD-493D-A37A-9F2021B86DAF.jpeg 797A9882-889F-48D2-8014-42A034D44671.jpeg DB28D375-98F2-4024-A299-B3FD9BA70054.jpeg

    Looks a lot like Red Pine to me. I have always wanted some of that for firepit wood.

    The standing tree pic has needles that are too short for a Red Pine. Any chance of getting a close up pic of the needles? The cut wood looks like Red Pine as others have said.

    I’m dumb but I call those Larch :) or close enough for me. Top pick looks familiar.
    Have a bunch growing on what used to be open pasture. Forest land is cheaper ;)
    To be honest I never go on that section of the property anymore because that’s all that’s there. Used to live in that pasture when I was a kid. Good Grouse and Woodcock habitat back in the day.

    Never mind I see your in NH... but it looks like our Loblolly Pines, though your well above their range
