    6A11D4F3-9F2C-4BA3-802E-1FADDFEFA8E3.jpeg Gents. Can anyone help me identify this wood. Looks like 3 types here. I’m thinking one type is Norway Maple, the other some sort of pine, but not sure about the other. Any help would be appropriated.

    Looks more like ash than Norway maple. Not sure on the gnarly stump log. Better btu's in that log but lots of noodling in your future. Last pic there's a spruce trunk with the little knots sticking out of it.
    Last pic...the wood in the trailer is walnut.

    Norway maple like you said on one of them. The smoother grey bark makes me think magnolia but I’m not putting money on it.

    not liking the vine on the log that looks like some sort of evergreen.

    I'm seeing 4 kinds of tree there. The smoothish barked one with the green tinge looks familiar for some reason but I just can't place a name to it. Bugging me too.

    The stuff with the nicely rounded heart wood I'm seeing as ash, looks pretty dead-on to most of the ash I get in my area. The more I look though I do see some with that similar bark that looks mapley to me. Crack some rounds open and post those pics too.

    I thought some of it looks like elm, but I don't see much elm, and don't think Ive ever cut any. The lighter colored small "log" reminds me of tree of heaven, but I've never seen one big enough if it goes with that big crotch piece...
