How Much Wood Can A Wood Chuck Chuck?

Remember this?
This was the pile of logs cleared from our lot and unsuitable for milling.
Without a person for scale it doesn't really look like too much, but it was a big, nasty pile of gnarly old cedar, maple and alder stacked more than six feet high.

Here it is - a work in progress.

And here is that pile today.
Roy worked and worked at it -cutting it with a chain saw and splitting it all with an ax, mauls and wedges. The pile measures 47 x 7 x 5 feet tall which works out to about 10 cords of wood, enough to keep us going for the next 5 years.

In addition to the firewood - Roy split some of the cedar into rails to be used for fencing.
That pile was daunting. I'm still proud & amazed that Roy was able to finish it.
With a sigh of relief - thankfully that job is done
All of this is leading up to landscaping. The pressure was on to get the logs out of the way of the grading, filling and leveling that should begin next week.
OK, we're ready - bring it on!
