Hello to all, I posted two years ago about another tree identification
and you were all wonderful! You identified the tree I had seen and I was

I have another mystery (to me). In my local woods I found a section of

PS: you may find something here tree identification | bark identification but
I couldn't immediately see yours. (There are four pages of tree barks
on that site, see the list at the top.) Some dogwoods and maples have
those striations running up the stems, e.g.
