Here's my pile in the backyard, and it's not "even" or "square." Sadly I am selling my house and wood fireplace (* sigh *) and I am including this wood but want to know what it is worth. I think I know what pine is worth per cord (here in Northeast Wyoming) but want to know how much cordage this is. This is something I am terrible at estimating, and I'm sure for several of you pros 20 seconds will give me a great estimate. I took several pictures and put the shovel in for comparison. Thanks in advance! And I'm sorry to be leaving the brotherhood. - Sam

Conservatively 3 chord max
 
Add like $200.00 for the cost of wood, looking like a cord and a half to two cords tops from this vantage point, good luck with the new place.
 
2 1/2 - 3 1/2 cords, estimate.
 
1.5 to 2 cords is my guess
 
there is more than you think but not
as much as you would like
All go 2 cord
 
3.5, give or take 0.5
I'd be inclined to give 0.5 vs take
It wouldn't be too hard to calculate the volume of that pile with some measurements
just the uncut logs
