Wood ID, White Oak?

[NRGarrott]

I had someone email me this picture and ask if I wanted the wood. The ends look like white oak to me, but the bark looks a little smooth. Anyone know?

It's Oak, though I'm not sure if it's white or red without a leaf. You definitely want it. Those rounds are pretty large so bring plenty of help, and a splitter.

Dat be oak.

Looks like white oak to me, already bucked I'd have it picked up already.

That's red oak, not white. Red has thicker heartwood like this. White has a flakier, lighter color bark.

Definitely a red oak. Likely pin oak or northern red oak.

The leaves on the ground looked like red oak to me, can you snap a picture of one?

 

[NRGarrott]

There is probably a cord of pine there also, already half bucked if anyone local to Crofton, MD wants it. Easy truck access.

NRGarrott, is your avatar a Chesapeake on a boat on the Chesapeake?

Now I'm craving some soft-shell crabs!

Another vote for red. Should split nicely.

 

[mass_burner]

Yes, the bark looks thick, so red.

 

[NRGarrott]

It was red oak. Good call everyone. It is mostly split and stacked now. Just one more load to go. I'm procrasting due to this 90 plus degree heat.

Whoever that someone was who sent you the email...that was awfully nice of them!! Lucky you on that one.
