Maple trees are an orange coloured tree found only in members-only areas. They can be cut down with level 45 Woodcutting giving the member 100 experience per maple log. Although there isn't a high demand for maple logs, members often cut these trees down as they give a lot of experience, considering the unpopularity of maple logs (therefore, there are less people in clusters when cutting them down).

Many members cut maple trees in order to reach level 60, when they can cut yew trees. Free players cannot cut maples; however, they can burn maple logs obtained through trade or the Grand Exchange.

[edit] Woodcutting

Seers' Village is a popular location for cutting these trees because they are behind the bank, making for a quick trip to store the logs obtained from woodcutting. A player gets a 100 experience per maple log. Also, player can get 110 woodcutting experience per log if they have a Seers' headband 2 equipped. You should start woodcutting these trees at woodcutting level 50. Most people cut these trees till level 60-65 woodcutting for yews at 60

[edit] Farming

Maple trees can also be grown from maple seeds in tree patches by members at level 45 Farming. The trees give 45 Farming experience when planted, 3404 Farming experience when checked, and maple roots when dug up. To grow a maple tree, players must plant a maple seed in a soil filled plant pot, water the seedling with a watering can, wait 5 minutes, and plant the sapling in a tree patch and wait for it to fully grow. A farmer will watch the tree growing for 1 basket of oranges. Growing maple trees are a very good way of farming experience
