Supposedly it grows up here but I’ve only seen ironwood in upstate NY. There’s a small amount on the children’s camp land. One area on the top of the hill is almost pure ironwood and it tapers off on the hillside back into the mix of ash and elm.

The only common hardwood I’ve yet to find on their acreage is shagbark.
 
I felled three more Beech today, I promised the wife that I would cook some Braciole so the splitting will have to wait. I'm hoping we get three face cord out of all the Beech from this area.

Well.... If this BK Princess continues on the track its on, I can comfortably say Ive easily just cut my wood usage in half.

24 hour burn on not quite a full load and the house only dropped 1 degree. Plenty of unburnt wood in the box to get another load going. It was very windy today with wind chills in the 20's. Wind usually sucks the heat out of our house pretty quick.

Gonna sell the King if anyone is looking. Its still in the crate.

Looks like he has a long handled Husqvarna felling lever on the right lol
 
It was a cold morning (17.2) but the sun was strong so I took the splitter up to split the beech....done.

The first four pictures are of the first rounds I split, 0249 is the part of the mess I cleaned up so I could haul the splitter down to the last rounds, 0250 is after the cleanup, 0252 is after I split the rounds that were left and the last picture is more beech I'll need to buck up and that will be a new trail to the main trail.

I'm hoping we get two face cord out of all the beech that is split.
