    Just got 2 loads of logs in FINALLY! The first one had no oak, the second one came 2 weeks later from a different site. The logs were wet, so I'm having a hard time identifying these with no leaves. Sorry for the bad pics. Not sure if oak or maple.

    I'm not seeing any oak I'm familiar with.

    Last pic...log with chipped bark looks like sugar (hard) maple. I also see an ash log, red maple too.

    Yeah, I'm guessing rock maple, but it looks different when wet I guess

    Hard to say since it is so scuffed up, but this one could possibly be red oak:

    Really sharp focused clean end grain pics are the most helpful IMO… particularly when trying to ID any oak.
    Glad for you that you got these 2 loads MaineMtnMan :yes:
