Yes RacerX,
Popple is poplar,,,,or quaking aspen,,,or trembling aspen,,,,or more correctly populus tremuloides.
At least that is what we call it in Northern Michigan. We don't have any other species of poplar in our neck of the woods.
Most people think of it as a junk wood. My Dad is like that, but he is a wood snob.
This spring I am going to cut some to mix with the really good wood that we have to buy in log length. The popple will be free from our land, and burns very well, but doesn't last long. But free is good! In my mind, anything to keep from paying the oil man is money in the bank.
