    Looks like ok wood but variable sizes.
    Heal up & keep looking for better quality/
    True "Hoarders" tend to become "wood snobs"

    If a real high quality score comes along:
    , hand trucks , ramps & friends, so no lifting needed.
    get it home & process when you can

    Not very straight cuts on lots of that stuff but it will still burn. Have to dig it out of the brush.

    Oh, the frustration. Keep working on that back. On the other hand, it IS rattlesnake season. Maybe you just avoided some nastiness.

    The wood snob comment is correct.

    I'm right around 2 years CSS, another 2 years bucked and temp stacked, so after taking down 4 more nice size ash recently I've been pretty selective. Not a crotch to be found in my newest stacks! :)
