Any idea what type of Wisconsin wood this is? I have better pictures now.

Based on those pics, I would say elm, probably slippery, red or soft elm. ( Ulmus rubra ) Red, slippery and soft elm are the same tree, just called different things depending on where you live. I didn't see any white lines in the bark on the last pic, so that rules out American Elm.

Good burning wood.
 
That makes sense. Thanks for your input!

Welcome any comments about what kind of wood this is. Young tree cut from the edge of a field in Virginia piedmont where the woods had been encroaching. It was living when cut, and it has been drying undercover for about three years. Thanks.
