Yellow Cedar is heavier, and more dense than Western Red Cedar though, and has a very fine texture and straight grain, giving it excellent strength and stability, with very little shrinkage. One of the most popular characteristic of Alaskan Yellow Cedar is its uniform pale yellow color when new, and the way it weathers to an attractive light silvery grey.
