Anybody want to take a shot at this. Could be black walnut, but something just doesn't look right to me. Cut a bur oak last year that from a distance looked very similar. I may go get it if I think its some good BTU's. No other pics than this one from the add: (broken link removed to https://columbus.craigslist.org/zip/5924318040.html)

I'll throw a guess at red elm out there....have processed a bunch lately and the stuff I had looked similar to the picture.

Walnut has a deeper farrow in the bark. I'm going with red elm also, which when seasoned is a great burning wood.
 
Oooooohhhhhhh I didn't think red elm. May have to check this one out. Thx fellas.
 
Looks like good hardwood. I'd go get it. I wish they had stuff like that around here on CL.
 
Ha! contacted him. It's gone. Didn't even take a day. Oh well, plenty of other scrounge wood around for me.
