    So, I've finally been able to get out to cut into this stuff the last couple weeks. No idea how much yet....I just keep cutting.
    However, the weather is great today, so I managed to get the splitter started and got it down to the processing area today. Had to fill the same tire that was flat last year. :picard:
    Went to town for more gas after all that, then split 8 rounds. Yep, 8. :rofl: :lol: Was a bit muddy, but the ground isn't fully thawed yet.
    Just as proof.............

    Cut into some of the older Poplar and a little of the Cottonwood yesterday too. Most is still frozen together, so I'm cutting off log ends.
