I was out walking the dog in the woods and came upon one of my favorite blow downs that has had my eye for a while.
A large Sugar Maple that is lodged off of the ground. Most of the blow downs back there are laying on the ground and just go to pot very quick.
Here it is.
Here is another that is dead dead standing. When you bang on it with something it sounds like a baseball ball. Not sure what species of tree it is as there is no bark or even much of a top to help ID it. I know it's hard as a rock.
I think that one is going to stay where it is unless it falls on its own due to the effort to bring it down safely and also the fact I think it's a critter apartment complex.
The wood guy is supposed to show up this week with another hard wood scrounge. After he unloads in the hardwood section of the wood yard he will refill with 10 cords of birch, tamarac, some popple and bring it up to the cutting area.
If that doesn't happen I'm going after the maple this weekend.
