Populus tremuloides
Quaking Aspen is technically a hardwood but like a lot of it’s other relatives in the poplar family it is a low density hardwood that can be even softer than many softwoods. Quaking aspen firewood only produces about half the heat as other hardwoods such as oak. It’s not the best of choice for firewood but if you can buy it cheap or get it free you might as well burn it. Quaking aspen can make decent campfire wood and is often straight grained and easy to split. It’s low density makes it easy to ignite so it can make good kindling.
