    Hi Folks,

    Would greatly appreciate it if any of you could help identify this wood. It is very heavy so hoping for something good! Location is north east PA. Thanks in advance

    Something good it is...sugar Maple. Great firewood and yes very heavy. Better than oak IMO and dries in a year.
