Good job! How many cords would you say is there?
My wood from last summer is still under snow. Look like I've a little less then 2 cords to keep me warm till I can start cutting and splitting again.

Very impressive!
That's an awesome sight for sure. Nice job. A couple of more days in the woods and I should be set for 18-19 winter, I'm pretty sure I have enough for 17-18 here already.

Well I paced it off and it is a over 150' four rows deep so I would say a hair over 25 cord.
Nice work.

Here too. I have orders for about 25 cords to finish which I'll wrap up soon. Usually slows down until June.
Would be done, but been spending a lot of time logging and having to fix stuff. Have to do 40 acres by breakup for cow land.

well that will do the job! I don't think it would even fit in my yard and still have room for a wood pile.

That's the smaller one. Have another at the other end of the yard. Have about 5 acres between wood yard and shop.

It will remain uncovered. This spot gets sun almost all day long and lots of wind, it's a good drying spot. I try and split so the pieces are thin rectangular pieces with lots of surface area, IMHO that aids in drying.

I split smaller when I only l have a year to season, but now I'm two to three years out so I try to add some thicker splits for longer overnight burns. splitting small works great for quick dying, even on oak.

Well it sells itself, every year by the end of November it's gone. Then I have to start over.
