Tree ID help
« on: April 06, 2020, 07:48:43 AM »
Need some help identifying this tree I started milling - a huge log at 38" diameter. Tree was in Shelby, NC and the log sat on the ground for 3+ years and it's got little decay, so good rot resistance. Some kind of cedar perhaps?

The color and rot streak looks like sassafras .  But then there is catalpa .
