Wood ID request

Anyone know what this? One of my neighbors wanted it gone, so I grabbed it, probably a 1/3 of a cord.

Def in the maple family

First pic looks like alder or maple. But all the pics showing the bark - honestly looks like cottonwood to me. I'm pretty sure it's cottonwood and/or poplar.

Thanks! Based on responses / google, I’m pretty sure it’s red maple.

I just cut a similar sized poplar tree down and these rounds are noticeably heavier than the poplar, even though this is very dry and that poplar is green. I’m drying that stuff in a separate stack so I don’t get mixed up.

Poplar out our way has a much thicker bark, almost black locust like.

The poplar I cut up looks almost like ash, whose bark is on steroids. Similar pattern, but 3-4X as thick as you point out.

Could be ash. Looks like it was dead standing and all the ash around here is dead standing.

Not seeing any diamond bark so probably not Ash.

I agree with maple. Bark doesn't quite look like the red here in the Northwoods. I had a similar maple conundrum on some maple logs from a tree service last fall in SE WI and came to my best guess was black maple, which looked similar to what you have.

I'm thinking sugar maple.

That’s 100 percent maple

I have a red maple that looks very similar

I’d say red maple.

Thanks guys, l stabbed this long ago in the “mystery maple” stack.
