Hello,
I've never been able to conclusively ID this wood from web searches, so I figured I'd try the experts here.
I'm in NW NJ and this stuff is down everywhere after Sandy. The trees, when standing, are rather large and have few or no branches until the top. The bark is thick and cork-like, and peels off very easily after sitting for even a short period of time.
I'm guessing it's yellow poplar??
