Identifying a tree by its bark is like judging a book by its cover: nearly impossble ;) Bark in young trees is often different from bark in old trees.
Can you perhaps provide us with a pic of the twigs, the old leaves, the buds, the endgrain...? It would all greatly help.

I think they're poplar. I  saw some just yesterday, while out hiking with my kids and had the benefit of seeing the rest of the tree. I know that they were poplar and they look just like yours.
