Sap didn't run at all for me this weekend. course we never got about 32 degrees either, and added another 6-8" of snow. Hoping today things take off, then it looks like another cold snap and more snow.

Pulled in 6-700 gal. each of the last three days. Today should be decent as well. Going to be a busy day getting ready to boil later...
Same situation here in Underhill. Might get a little sap late this afternoon, otherwise just more snow headed our way.Quote:

Sap started running at 11:00 this morning. There is still a lot of the woods froze but I have been getting 275 GPH for the last three hours. Should run to 8-9 pm.
Spud
same here. started running around 11. lots of laterals frozen up, but should thaw out before the sap shuts off completely... for a while!
Many way a moderator can get it fixed so a quote/inch “ sign does not do that?Quote:

Just pumped the barrels. Maybe 0.1 GPT today, kinda disappointed.

775 gallons syrup, no official tally but around 35-40k gals of sap....will be fun hauling in snow today picking up last night remnants. Sugar still 1.7-1.9 depending on bush. Should make another 50-60 gals today.
Will we be sugaring into may/ June In the north I take it!!
