Firewood stocking is completed for our upcoming winter season.  We completed splitting rounds, stacking firewood, stocking kindling, and wrapping firewood today at Swampy.  There was a great crew of 6 there today (John, David, Ernie, Ed, Donna, and I).  It was a lot of fun and super efficient.  Jeanni and I gathered kindling at Nordeen and Swede yesterday and covered 3 brush burn piles with lumber wrap at Nordeen.  The giant brush burn pile at Swede got covered today by John and Donna.  Nordeen has 3 and Swampy has 1 punky wood piles covered for burning.

I don't believe we will ever run out of easy firewood rounds at Swampy.  We stocked it using only 2 work days and 9 person days of labor.  We hope to use similar methods next season at the other 3 shelters but they don't have the absurd abundance of easy logs like Swampy.

The team of folks who contributed really shined.

All we need now is snow!
