Finished my latest stacks replacing what I burned last winter and adding several rows. This is almost all red oak, white oak, and shagbark hickory. Just under 8 cords in these stacks. They are stacked on pallets. This will be burned sometime after 2019.
Will cover these stacks this fall before the leaves drop. Also started a holz hausen with some oak and hickory that I had cut that was left over. I don't know how much wood I will need to finish it - this is just something I've always wanted to try. I am stacking this rather loosely and am curious to see how it dries.
Combined with all of my other stacks I am at about 28 cords c/s/s, good for 5-6 years hopefully here in Virginia. Have barely cut anything all summer, will probably start again in the fall when the weather gets more tolerable and the humidity goes down.
