Western White Pine

Pinus monticola

Western White Pine is a low density softwood that is not often used for firewood partly due to it’s low availability in most areas. White pine firewood  burns fast and has a low BTU rating and produces a low amount of heat. Western White Pine is a conifer that grows in the mountains of the western United States and Canada mainly in the Cascades, Sierras and northern Rockies.

Unfortunately I don’t have it’s BTU rating but if anyone has it feel free to post it or your experiences with western white pine firewood below.
