Sorry, but that pic doesn't give me much of a shot at it. It appears that some of the surrounding trees are maples and oaks, so it could be one of those varieties.
Need better pics.

Not going to happen it is a CL scrounge. Might just go pick some up and add it to the pile...won't be used for at least 2 years anyway.
I think it is either Black Walnut, or more likely Mulberry. I see a dark, ridged bark, thick whitish sapwood, and an orange heartwood. That sounds like Mulberrry. If the heartwood is more like brown than orange (hard to tell in the pics) mabe Black Walnut. Either way it is worth getting. It does not apear to be ailanthus, willow, or poplar, which are about the only woods I would say are not worth getting.
If you don't get it some one will.
It's free BTUs, no liming, a good location
Worst: it's cottonwood, a good shoulder season wood.
Best: it's maple & you get it all & can brag about it
What would you be doing if you don't go get it?

Some days we can be a pretty tough crowd . LOL
All in fun & good intent though.
Very tough crowd! Try to learn something and this is what I get! LOL
Well what kind of wood was/is it ?
We couldn't tell by the pictures but we knew it would make fire wood.
You did go get it, Right?
