In 2018, I used a skid steer to do some clearing at the properly which resulted in a burn pile in the north east corner. That pile has now sat in that location for five years. Yesterday, I started the pile on fire. I made about eight trips to pick up bits of yaupon I pulled back in November and burned it on top of the pile.
This is what the burn pile looked like when I finished clearing on April 16, 2018.
The following picture is from yesterday morning right after I started the pile on fire. Over the five years, some of it broke down which made burning it a little easier. However, the big pieces that remained at the bottom are all oak.
The following picture is after the pile burned overnight. Despite the heavy rain storm, the fire kept going and was burning still this morning. There were parts of two stumps left and that is essentially it. After five years, I'm glad this pile is now burned.
