Still doesnt look like ash to me not even an old one, but Iam not from the east and if your eating somthing I am sure your right.

Yep--Ash--the bark that looks like a metal mesh gives it away.

 

[PA. Woodsman]

That's Ash; see how it has that green fungus growing near the top part of it-that happens with Ash.

 

[Gunks]

It looks like the Ash I have on my yard.

That's a great analogy! I was just wondering the other day how to really describe it.

thats not ash

smokin the more I look at a picture of ash and basswood bark the more I think its basswood. If I can get up there this weekend I'll cut it up and take a picture of the wood.

More basswood on our property than ash, also the bark is soft which makes me think it is basswood. Will have the answer for Saturday night.

I hope it's ash, I have to cut it up to open the trail so it will be firewood ash or basswood.
