Had to unload the truck as the snow started falling this morning.
Good thing to as it' laying already and has started getting heavier. Have to pick the kid up at 12 they should have just left them home.
Dang, look at all those stihls
.
Lot's of nasty there James.
Just passed a state plow truck going other way. Less then a mile the roads white again. Box truck and a minivan off the road on 216 probably more till I head back threw with the kid.
Nope I'll just pull the lever if I need more traction.
Thanks crowbuster. The chunks weighed quite a bit when I loaded them. I thought it was just wet but hard maple makes sense. I think the last photo might be ash when I compare the bark to other photos in the thread.
How long has it been down? Mulberry is obvious when it's fresh cut as it' almost highlighter yellow in color. It makes excellent firewood but will throw sparks when you open the stove. It fades to almost chocolate brown when seasoned. Just touch a chain to it if it doesn' throw bright yellow chips it's not mulberry.
I was thinking our 216 down this way. Then I remembered taking the back way to Alvernia, up through Manchester, toward Reading. Is that 216 also?
I always hated having to put my old F350 crew cab diesel in 4wd, it would spin just looking at snow.
Mulberry there Bobby. heavy as heck when green. ranks a bit above red and white oak in BTU,s. #11 on the chart for eastern hardwoods. a good wood for smoking meat. dries fairly quick when split and stacked.
Woohoo. If it's still there later in the week, and after this ******** weather, I'll grab the rest of it.
didn't realize you were so close by Bobby. i think we're going to have to start a PA scroungers club.
