Got this stuff from from a recycling center in MD. Pain in the butt to split. You can see the one piece that I split that its extremely stringy.

Thanks in advance.

Gum sounds like its impossible to split but you can split Elm. Just not so easy with an axe.
I feel pretty confident its Elm.

Well, I've split gum before. It's a major pain in the butt. After doing some further reading, I'm just going to throw these logs into the fire pit and not even bother splitting them.

Yeah. I'm still leaning my tree barks. Tough without the leaves.
