Some pics to share:
1. 9 cord of maple, css last summer. For 2012/2013. In a field, that gets lots of sun and wind.
2. 12 cord of new wood to process. Yellow birch, rock maple and beech. Probably won't start this until April. (For 2013/2014.)
3. 2/3 cord of new poplar. About 17" at the butt. I fell it onto a stream in front of my sisters cabin.
My youngest son hauls it up to the driveway with a plastic sled, 60" long, 17" wide, 9" tall. (He is 16, 6'1", 200 lbs.)
I burn about 16 cord / winter. Half hardwood, half softer woods (poplar, fir, pine).
I put about 12 cord in my basement wood room in the fall. and put in another few cord during the winter.
