Looks like a nice load!
 
Nice load, I see ash, maple and a couple smaller pieces of possible white oak. If you split the ash first and then the maple you should be good to go for next season.
 
Nice load, I look at those big hardwood trees and lifting the rounds onto the splitter and my back starts to twitch. It's worth it, you have a lot of BTU there.
 
Velvetlfoot, would you mind sharing your source for the wood? I buy mine locally for $150 for a little less than 2 cords in 10 lengths but would like to get more at a time. By the way thanks for the picture, now i know what kind of snow is on the ground in town. I escaped to Florida this year and will be back in a week. Looks like I will be firing up the stove.
 
PM is on the way. He's out of Stephentown/Berlin.

Florida. Lucky you. I wish I was down there for Spring Training.
 
Thanks. Are you good with ID'ing wood? He said there was a good amount of ash in it, but I forgot what else he said.

I have to agree with kennyp here. Looks like ash and maple, maybe a stick of black birch or beech?

Good stuff!
 
It's nice they could drop it between two trees. Out if the way and good spot to cut and split. Oak ash beech is what I see too. Good stuff.

hi velvet foot just wondering how much splits do you get out of a log on average ?
 
How much does a load like that cost delivered?
7 cords total?

When I'm done taking down my own trees, that is the way I'm going to have to go. So much less work.

Sand Lake? I have about 275 acres in Poestenkill just up the hill from you.

Velvetfoot, can you PM me as well the source for the log length? On the Petersburgh/Berlin line and have been looking for a source for log length locally should the need arise. Thanks.
 
Or he may give you a discount for all your referrals:)

Wow!!

Yeah, wow. I'm running out of space. I believe I'll condemn some more back lawn and build another wood stack next to the others. Easier to move from current resting place with lawn tractor and cart=still argh!
 
looks like it could be real close to 7 cord
