Your good friend gave you some nice soft maple. You will find that if you get that split and stacked right away, you may be able to burn some of that by January or February. You will also enjoy splittting it because it splits really nice. We always save some of that and make kindling in about 1" x 1". Naturally that small it will dry super fast and the reason we like it for kindling is that it lights really quick and easy which makes fire starting much easier. Combine that with about 1/4 of a super cedar and you have a real winner.
 
+1 on the maple. Nice firewood !!
 
Good stuff. Doesn't get much better than freeeee!
