I'm going through the wood at a phenomenal rate this year...way more than what I was hoping for.
November I burned .8 cord of punky yellow poplar. Absolute junk but I had to get rid of it somehow.
December was the 5th coldest in last 30 years and I burned about a cord or so of Black Walnut with a tiny bit of red oak.
January has been average temps and I've burned about 1/2 - 2/3 cord of some pretty decent red elm. I should end up at about a cord for Jan.
Figure another 2 cord to get me through March and I'll let the fire go out.
I'm tracking somewhere around 5 cord for this season. Was hoping for 4. Oh well, looks like I'll have 2 additional days of processing this spring to get the extra cord.
