I love beech! My experience has been it needs at least two years to season, sometimes longer.
20/70, shagbark hickory with some sugar maple. We've had about 12" of snow this weekend and it's still coming down. I was out shoveling earlier...
I've had similar experiences with pignut and bitternut. I've been burning lots of shagbark the last month and it is the best - high heat output...

Thank you!
Merry Christmas to all my brothers and sisters here! I've been scarce lately due mainly to work and hunting. It'll be nice to have some downtime...
Happy Thanksgiving to all here at FHC.
36 out, 74 in. I was out hunting all day and what a joy to come home to a cozy house (my wife's had the fire going all day). We are burning red...
