I just had the same issue with a log. The way I resolved it was to cut the log in half, gut the molded/rotten wood and let the rest dry out. What was left was about 4 inches or firm wood (insert joke here). I assumed what had happened was that the log dried too quickly and sealed the moisture inside. Fortunatly my experience ended up well. Good luck.
