Welcome one and all to the Northern Ontario 2025 forum. I had the pleasure of meeting another local Maple Trader member recently. We got to hang out at the wood hobby club up at the 22 Wing air base. It may be cold out now but spring is coming.

Welcome one and all to the Northern Ontario 2025 forum. I had the pleasure of meeting another local Maple Trader member recently. We got to hang out at the wood hobby club up at the 22 Wing air base. It may be cold out now but spring is coming.
Can't wait to get started. I found 5 more trees this winter that I can tap. I will now be over 60 trees. Slowly growing with each year. This year is the first year I haven't spent money on my setup as well.
"Haven't spent money"....yet :)
Yet is the correct thing to say.
Anyone in the North Bay area going to tap this weekend with the warm week forecasted?
I will be tapping in West Nippissing on Thursday. Still a lot of frost in the ground but maybe all that rain will speed up the thaw.
Tapping Thursday in Parry Sound>
Loads of snow in the bush
I tapped about half my trees yesterday in West Nipissing. Probably 30% were running. Will finish the rest today.
Ended up tapping yesterday before the storm. A few were starting to flow.
Hey fellow northerners. Anyone got their taps in? Wondering how the flow was over the past couple of very warm days. My buddies down in Powassan were all set up and has a small run on the first day of the warm up then nothing. I am tapping today. Wish me luck. 670 holes to drill but should be able to scurry across the snow without snowshoes due to the hard freeze last night.
