    Was loading up a half cord of nuggets and shorts and came across these. An ornamental yard tree i first thought a variety of honey locust. Bark reminds me of a cross between cherry and yellow birch.
    After three plus years of drying they were still on the heavy side. IMG_4521.JPG IMG_4520.JPG IMG_4519.JPG

    Not a freaking clue. Never seen bark like that in Wisconsin that looks like a satellite map of The Mekong Delta!

    No clue here as well. Bark ID is typically unreliable but this is what Picture This says:
