I think choke cherry as well, with little bumps on the grey birch like bark

Not serviceberry. Wrong shaped buds. The buds are the easiest, most accurate I.D. method in the winter.

Thanks blaflair and Pat. I will go check out the known choke cheery trees in my area and compare.

It looks like chokecherry to me Matt. However, I am notoriously wrong on tree ID. I am undoubtedly the worst person on this forum at id'ing trees. So take my opinion with a grain of salt. Josh

that doesnt look like the chokecherry we have on my side of Idaho. Looked at the pictures again. looks like it has been around for awhile, maybe it is chokecherry. the ones I see in the mountains here never really get that big. Tell

Matt, just an idea but could you get a service forester out there or a forestry extension agent. They can't be to busy this time of year and would probly like to get out of the office. Matt

Not a bad idea. I cut some this weekend. I need to talk to my neighbor a little more. I also cut some plum that was Patawatomi plum. It looks quite similar but just a little different. Maybe some kind of cherry. I will get to the bottom of it though.

What does the wood smell like when cut? Cherry and Chokecherry smell very distinctive. I recall Serviceberry being much more neutral in smell.

I did not notice a smell but didn't get up in there. I know it's not chokecherry and pretty sure it's not service berry. Someone around me knows I just have to make a few calls.

I misunderstood my neighbor. That is a Patawatomi plum. I can finally sleep. I got a couple of good pieces and some more of a wild plum. I hope it works
. I got some green gage plum just the other weekend. Now I'm swimming in plum, I guess that's a good place to swim
