I used Cedar and a shmedium 6" Ash. Ash was not preferred by any means but It was in the way and needed to be removed. Likely will be the first to rot away and will be added to in the fall or spring next year.

Would have loved to have used Hedge/Osage Orange. Would have lasted longer than me for sure.
