Most of it looks like ash. The stuff in the first picture with the dark centers may be some kind of nut bearing tree, like walnut or hickory.

That is a lot of wood. How long is it going to take you to clean all that up? Any idea how much is there?

Man, that is one heck of a find if I ever happen across a score that good I might have to slap myself a few times to make sure it's not a dream. Great Score

So all that you split - you share 50/50 with the landowner? Sounds like 1/2 the wood for 100% of the work.

Maybe I'm spoiled or greedy - but I don't think it would be worth my time. Even with a gas splitter - it's hard work to me. Too hard to give away wood, when around the next corner - there's someone giving away 100% free wood.

All that matters is it works for you and that you are happy with the score. I see alot of good wood - congrats

No landowner does half the work also
