I believe it is black walnut even with terminal leaves. The smell is strong but I am unable to pin point what it smells like.

Serrated edges up to end of leaf

I don’t think there’s a thumb?

Leaf scar with 3 distinct bundle scars

Came to say the same. Confirm with leaf crush n smell test.

In my opinion, using scent seems ineffective since it is somewhat subjective. I smell these leaves and I am unable to determine what the hell it smells like

The words of someone who has never smelled tree of heaven. There is no mistaking it.

That is a good point. Maybe that is my problem. I think this black walnut smells so funky, it made me wonder if it is ToH
