I agree with duckman. Tulip tree Liriodendron tulipifera Bark and wood match. But then again it's in the PNW so a little out of my zone.
The heart wood was slimy green looking.

It's Poplar....not popular....lolWood specialist said popular. He said it has a distinct smell. He wasn’t sure on the other wood the guy told me black locust but one guy said fruit wood.
Really, I think a lot of us are just guessing here, as there are a lot of trees native to the Pacific NW and California that are not found anywhere else. I'm pretty good at conifer IDs there, but don't have much experience with hardwoods in those areas.
Naw, I know all the native PNW trees - this isn't one of ours.
Since you're from the area, I agree that you probably know all of them! But someone from the other parts of the country might have a problem with the hardwoods of the PNW.
And here's the best cure for sore backs that I know of!
I'm on the Poplar boat. Definitely a Poplar bud. My climber likes to eat them, so we don't give him any work in Poplars when they are budding, he won't get anything done. This is what Black Walnut looks like fresh cut.View attachment 726531
