Seen a few of the end dumps on their sides here at the local pulp mill any sort of wind well they’re in the air and they’re flopped.

This was just a seedling by western standards, but a good sized poplar for around here. What really surprised me was how sound it is. Usually by the time they get that big they are rotten.
I have some big ones like that, that my dad and me, planted MANY years ago. I'm getting ready to cut a couple down and mill them into boards to put on one of the walls in my cabin.

I think that will look really cool, and I like the idea of the light-colored wood in there.

Poplar can make some very nice boards.

I have cut several that dad and me, didn't plant, and built things out of them, including a small building. You can get some wide lumber out of them for sure.

Is that Balsam Poplar/Balm-of-Gilead ? We have never seen that hear. Looks like nice wood.

Yours still looks solid (y) Our variety is more rotted by the time it comes down. 2 recent blow downs.
