As usual thought my pics were better lol

 

[Craig S.]

The first one ... I'm going to say Antarctica ... oh wait ... wood type? No clue.

 

[Smoke Stack]

Some type of walnut maybe? Black walnut? Whatever it is it looks really cool to work with.

 

[Sully]

The first one is heaviest piece of wood move ever lifted

I got a few rounds of the first one. Insane heavy. The second one I need to split out there will try if not raining tomorrow. Third one, frozen to ground so sorta a pain to attempt

 

[PA. Woodsman]

The second one with the brown inside definitely Walnut; can we get a look at the bark on the other one, the "heavy" one?

 

[Paulywalnut]

Black Walnut and I think Hard Maple

You should keep a maul in your truck. You could have quartered the large round and made it easier to lift.

I'm with Pauly on the IDs.

Right about the maul. I'm getting ready to go up and get some before rain and quartering it is the plan

So is walnut a good burn. How does it season? Went back with a maul before the all day rain set in. I fit more into mornings than I do all day. Sorta crazy

 

[red oak]

Walnut can season in a year. It puts off some heat but will never be confused with oak or locust. Yesterday most of the day was in the high 30s and I burned some walnut and it was just about right. Best for shoulder season in my opinion.

Works for me. A lot of the wood I've been scrounging now is more for mixers. From what I read I don't want to load all hedge etc.. I'm getting a large load of oak delivered from the local utility in next few weeks so I'm looking for the fill in the gaps stuff. Sounds like walnut will work well for that

Split a few of #1. It's heavy. Hard and bark seems very close to giant oaks I have in yard

You're doing good, Sully. Impressed that you are out there scrounging wood between the raindrops and the snowflakes!

Possible mild case of add lol. I can't stand sitting inside all day. I keep going out grabbing some out of truck split it stack go back in and look at hearth.com lol.

, first thing that popped into my mind too

On par with Red Oak for heat output, but dries a bit faster (will still need a couple years in the stack, though, with that fresh stuff)....good stuff.

 

[Paulywalnut]

If you get big walnut rounds, the dark heartwood when fully dry is awesome stuff to burn.
