red/soft/swamp maple
No way silver maple- if it were, you could identify it by the low density, even green. (Gotta use all available properties to id wood, you know.) That bark is a dead give-away.
Check out SUGAR MAPLE in the .pdf publication I gave you, you know "Important Forest Trees Of The Eastern United States." Another clue: it's known to Yankees also as "rock maple"- any guesses as to why.
If you've ever laid hands on silver maple, you'd never confuse it with sugar maple. :msp_rolleyes:
I agree, no silver maple in any pics. More like red maple.I don't see any silver maple in those pictures either, any of your pictures. I would say all in these last ones are red oak.
