Smokin the bark is real close to the bark in this picture and I'm not sure what this is but my neighbor who I gave it to said it burned real good plus left some nice coals.

loon said:from the first far away pics it looks like elm zap? but the closeup on the bark doesnt seem to be?

Backwoods Savage said:Dead elm splits good. But we leave it until the bark has fallen off before cutting it. I see there is some bark off but I'd leave it another year before cutting it if it is elm. It certainly grows like elm judging by the shape of the tree.
VTHC said:After cutting/splitting almost a cord of Elm this past winter i would say that is Elm too - based on the shape of the branch growth. The picture of the bark you posted looks identical to the bigger Elm I cut down about a month ago.
True confirmation will come as soon as you try to split that first round!
