    What is your BIG 3 in firewood?

    climbing-tearing up your body-how long can we do it for!?

    A local tree guy took this red oak down at my home yesterday, no access for a bucket truck ... so a climbing he went. He's 56 years young, and with this 54 year old groundie, the tree was down in about 2 hours. Nice work! .

    Wood ID Referance

    Looks like Norway Maple to me ... then again there's no Bradford Pear around here. Norway maple is relatively soft, splits easy .. not a lot of heat content though, but, better than nothing!! :msp_thumbup:
