Moved about 4 cords of wood into the shelter after being outside on pallets in the wind and sun for a full year and cut off the tarps on the front and sides of the wood shelter as I will be replacing them all this fall..

The stacks were in the wind (we get lots of wind here) and sun a full year before I moved them into the shelter and there is still 2 cords left in the shelter from this season with absolutely no sizzling.. The wind blows through the wood in the shelter too. I am getting 3-4 more cords delivered, locust and ash starting tomorrow which will be stacked outside plus I have another cord or so of oak and cherry to stack and I have a cherry to cut up on my property which I haven't gotten around to yet.. Life is goodHow long had the wood been in the stacks Ray?
I put the wood from the over 2 year old stacks into the shed last year in June-ish, and thought that was early.
I'm shooting for August this year, to give the wood a bit more time in the field/sun/wind.
Good on ya for getting a jump on things. Now, all you have to do is refill the pallets.
Did someone mention bracing?

with absolutely "no sizzling".
Yes it could easily fit 12 cords however I store the wood wagon, elec. splitter, and 2 snowblowers in there.. Can heat my home for 2 full years with the wood in that shelter right nowYour shed looks big enough for that much more wood.
Like the firewood term "no sizzling"
It's great keeping the wagon in there as I can load it out of the weather If I ever get a shed then I will store much more in the shelter..Good for you Ray. Now clear out some of the other stuff and get that shed full.
Ray, it looks like the wind screams through that area, nice job.Moved about 4 cords of wood into the shelter after being outside on pallets in the wind and sun for a full year and cut off the tarps on the front and sides of the wood shelter as I will be replacing them all this fall..
