New use for a stacked row of wood; "snow fence "
Now I'm even more thankful I built a wood shed

Might have to get plowing there. I think you have been getting record snows right? I'll try and blow this non winter we have up your way. Be well

I just hope he doesn't already have something planed for that day.

Now that's a cool idea, Dave .. let the snow ice crystals steal the water out of the wood! We're going to try it....

As always great pics Dave. Personally, I would split it asap. Splits easier frozen and at -23 I would think that should do it! Lol..

I thought the same thing. Great minds think alike.
I will split it ASAP.
When ASAP is, may vary in different locations.

Keep smiling, Dave, it was -57ºF here this morning. I'm hoping this is the last of the severe cold for this winter. We're supposed to get your weather later this week.
I think you already know this, but the spring sunlight warms the wood right through the snow and melts the snow away from the woodpile pretty quickly.

I know I'm not going to shovel snow so I can go split it.
It's up on pallets too, so it'll make it till mid spring.
April the top 2 - 3" of the ground will be thawed, so a muddy mess if it try to get near it.
It'll have to wait to May, I might be able to get to the cutting area & get a few ore loads by then.
So I might have more to split. I need about 3 more cords for 2013/14 wood to be done.
If winters are going to be like this one, I may need 6-1/2 cords per season, I sure hope not (Bigger shed ???
-12°f now, to warm up tonight, & be in the teens tomorrow, I HOPE, I HOPE, I HOPE
Was -23 last night, to be +18 tomorrow 40° temp increase
