Locust is a seemingly rot resistant wood, I'm always amazed at the condition of the posts from 50+ years ago, points still on them, just grayed from weathering, which makes me think of another use for dimensional pieces that short, would make durable implement dunnage ( keep your implements off the ground ) I find lumber all the time and when good for nothing else, I make dunnage, blocking or cribbing for heavy equipment repair jobs, might be another use to consider because it lasts a long time.

Around here in the Alb. NY area, it seems prices will hit $200/cord delivered. There is a huge quantity of standing dead elm around here, although most people hate it because of difficulty splitting it, a lot of it is small diameter, burns very nice, I've got my own way of dealing with it, I think it's a waste not to do something with it and getting rid of the standing dead helps decrease living areas for the insect that spreads dutch elm disease, which has killed so many old time elms. I'll be giving it a shot selling this off my lot on a busy state road to VT, my instinct tells me it should sell.
