Cutting down a big dead tree

You can't see it super clearly, but it is in the middle of this picture in the far away tree line leaning over to the left. It has been dead since we moved in, but recently has started leaning more.
So Doug and Don tackled it this week. 

Doug thinks we got maybe 3.5 stere - which is the French measurement for fire wood. It is a cubic meter of meter lengths of wood. Which means when you buy it in 0.5 meter lengths to fit in the fire it is a little less than a cubic meter as thy pack closer together when shorter.
You can see the stump in the background.
