My father-in-law's next door neighbor has a very large pile of old rounds. They are at least 10 years old and could easily be 20+ yo. I have asked my FIL several times over the years to check with his neighbor about me taking a look at the wood. He finally did, so I dug through it a few days ago. Some of the wood had gone punky, but the rounds on the top were hard and dry. I grabbed a truck load. it was fun to process. Rounds that I would normally have trouble rolling could be carried in one hand, and I could split them with a stern look.
My question, of course, is what can I expect when i burn this stuff next winter?
