Why that ID? What exact features of wood and bark?

Any recommendations for good ID sites, forestry education or ??

It's ash bark and the wood is white.

Other ash species I've cut have very dark heart wood.

What other species? Guy at work had Ash like your talking about, he swore it was hickory! He brought a different split to work everyday for two weeks to argue his point.... until I brought in a couple hickory splits and he finally conceded.

I've cut green ash (yard trees, not indigenous to my area) as well as a ton of black ash.

Do they both have the dark core?

One of these has square like branches I believe. I thought it was the green ash.

That's awesome Steve, I just downloaded it. Thanks. I have 3 different tree i.d. books and use my phone for everything in the world, but somehow I've never thought there might be an app as I stand over a downed tree wondering if it's worth taking home.

i didn't download it yet. i think i saw that you could take a pic of a tree or leaf and the app could identify it. i'm not real smartphone savvy though. let me know how it works.
