Sure, some
Obviously not as good as hot and dry, but dry is the key there.
I lived for many years in a no utilities cabin, I did my wash most of the time in a tub with a washboard, just like in granpappy's day. Hmm..that was also my bathtub thing...in the winter. summer I just went down to the lake with my bottle of dr. bronner's.....
Hung the wet wash out on the line, winter or summer. In the winter it would freeze stiff as a board, then over the next few days eventually loosen up and..it would be dry.
Where I live now on a hot day, hang the wash out before lunch, by 1 in the afternoon it is completely dry, even the seams on pants will be dry.
The driest place on the planet, for a large large area..Antarctica.
Ha! Would be fun to be there and try splitting some REAL frozen wood.
Idea!!! Worth a few bucks for a hoot...err..scientific experiment. I think I am gonna find some "dry ice" source around here and freeze a round with it, make some cobjob big cardboard and styrofoam scraps "cooler" that's big enough to hold a big round, drop the ultra cold thing in there, let it set a spell, then quick whip it out and split it. Maybe find a junker broken chest freezer and use that.....now I have to check something..
CO2 at -108.7 °F or colder it is a solid or "dry ice".
Cold enough for a good experiment.
Ok frozen up north dudes, what is the absolute coldest wood you have ever split, and how did it go? Best I can recall is around 20 or so below, but then I came to my senses and went back inside to where the fire was....
