I think more of the soft maple (silver) from earlier. Cheers!

The bark is very different from the other stuff. Tough to split.

I thought is just looked older - sun bleached, etc.

Cheers!
 
Definitely not soft maple or at least none I've seen but I'm not totally certain what it is.
 
Kentucky coffee tree

I tend to agree with Kestrel, the bark in the second picture looks like white oak.

I see white oak as well.
 
Neither the bark or the grain look particularly oaky to me. I could be wrong though .
 
Most definately NOT oak, Coffee tree may be a good guess not real familar with that however.
 
The bark on coffee trees can look very different from tree to tree but light grey and scaly is pretty common from what I have seen, and the color in those splits as well as the grain are pretty much what you see in coffee tree
