    I find that to be true for the trunk but not limb wood. Limb wood always feels lighter to me.

    Well, that limb has been on the ground for several months, and is quite wet.

    The 'bota picked it up about 8 inches in the air, but the front tires were also hovering above the ground.
    :whistle:

    Cut that one on the ground, and moved it with the quad and cart.
    :yes:

    When wet/green, poplar/Aspen weighs a lot.
