Aspen<\/a>\u00a0is the name given for a collective species of poplar trees and so is part of the\u00a0poplar tree family<\/a>. It is often mistaken for a birch due to its similar bark and leaves. The tree itself prefers moist soils, using the earth\u2019s water to grow up to 100 ft tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aspen may have a very light density but is still a hardwood. It generates enough heat (16.5 BTUs) to produce a decent fire. However, it is a quick-burning wood so that fire will only last for a few hours at most. Considering its decent coals and minimal smoke production, aspen is fair firewood to use.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
