Oy, thanks, yes that looks just like it. Only thing is, I have no sap coming out. Also the leaves and branches are not affected, only the bark. Am hoping against home it is just frost burn from last winter. I just put this tree in last spring, so maybe the fast growth of a young tree combined with the "polar vortex" winter last year combined to create the situation. It's about twice as big as it was a month ago though.

Thank you for the link, that was very helpful. What I have does look just like the pictures in the link.
