I don't care how cold it gets outside.
....
I have an enclosed trailer I built years ago that I park next to the kitchen door (on concrete pad) each fall - and fill with wood. It holds about 2 1/2 cord. Normally I burn a mix of various hardwoods - and it will get me through about 3/4 of the winter - so I will bring a few loads up with the quad. I shouldn't need to this year.
This year - it's filled with well seasoned - 7 or 8 years old - 80% osage and 20% hard maple.
If you never burned osage - it is the highest BTU per cord (32 million) of any wood grown east of the Missisippi. Heavy, dense and smells nice burning.
Plus - practically no creosote - so the chimney stays clean....
You gonna burn one?
