I'm planning to tap this coming week. It looks like we'll start the year with a big run. Did anyone happen to see that the lows are above freezing at the end of next week? I hope the deeper cold we've had doesn't just give way to spring.

I think that is on everyone's mind

that happened a few years back, it was a joke of a season, maybe 3 weeks long.
we are tapping this weekend (sat). can't wait for the run to start so we can see how our first attempt at a mainline will work.

Started Sunday and it's tough going out there. Lots of snow, hope to have them all in by the weekend. Homemade evaporator with new firebrick firebox, blower and Smokey lake maple flat pan. Can't wait. Good luck

Tapped on the 19th. Had a great run over the weekend.
Hopefully the current cold snap won't be as long as advertised...

Over on mountain rd wilbraham. Just getting into it so I'd like to come see a real operation. I have 8 acres of maple so I would like to expand someday. I think I talked to yur kid Andrew about some buckets I saw on Craig. I would like to find some with lids.
