We burned two cord of quaking aspen this year for the shoulder season, I cut that just up the hill from this. I'll get a better picture later this week or on the weekend.

It's probably a poplar, I'll look for some leaves when I'm up there.

Good possibility that the op's aspen is Big Tooth. Out east it is sometimes very difficult to tell without a leaf. But for some reason quaking aspen out west does look differant than back east, they are the same beast however!!

Not at all Pat, I actually found out what type of Aspen, the oldtimers just call it popple. I always remember the Quaking Aspen in the movie True Grit.

Less than half a cord of Bigtooth Aspen. Here (and Zapny isn't that far away so I am sure he has the same trees) we have both Bogtooth and Quaking Aspens. Bigtooth is a larger tree here more likely to grow in the middle of the forest, while Quaking Aspen is a smaller tree more likely to spring up along edges, roads, etc., but they're very similar and hard to tell apart sometimes without a leaf. Bigtooth Aspen is named for the large 'teeth' along the edges of the leaves - Quaking Aspen also has teeth but they're smaller..

I have a big tooth aspen about that same size that I can take, but I've let it sit for all the loads of Oak I've been getting.

Should I take a big tooth aspen? A worthy scrounge?

Stack it after cutting and then we'll measure the stack. Then I can tell you how much there is zap.
