Marketplace find they claim oak. Looks like a good bit of wood. What would you guys pay for it? There are 5 logs 8 foot length 70 cubic feet by my math.
Pic number 1 has the top of the tree in it. Can’t see the stump, but they didn’t drag it far!Yes I did see those but we don’t know if that’s where the tree was moved to or was. I don’t see a stump. I meant leaves on the branches that came off that tree. Definitely does not look like red oak grains to me. The bark doesn’t match white oak. But am only familiar with these oaks that are found in the northeast
2ft lengths. That's unfortunate, Not a very usable size unless it's fireplace or outdoor use. Also tough to split longer lengths. Cut it in 1/2 and you have under 12". I'd rathe they cut it in 3ft lengths. Then at least you can get 18" lengths.Here the US Forest Service charges $35 per cord of hardwood, for pickup from the National Forest. Precut to ~2' lengths, but not split.
I think when I got there, almost a year after it was cut and stacked, the piles were already very picked over. There wasn't that much left, I ended up doing quite a bit of driving around to get my one cord. Maybe there was some uniformly cut and split firewood initially, because that's what the ranger who sold me the permit implied. I probably found the leftovers. This particular firewood was from cleaning out the Crystal Lake campground area in the Angeles National Forest in May of 2023. The wood was first advertised in in June or July of 2023, and I was actually surprised when I was told there was still some left. I had inquired about whether they had similar wood for sale elsewhere.2ft lengths. That's unfortunate, Not a very usable size unless it's fireplace or outdoor use. Also tough to split longer lengths.

I assume that 2ft is somehow the easiest size for them to deal with. And also why they only charge $35. They must have way more than they can deal with and just want it moved out Asap.
