Haven't boiled in over two weeks, just cold enough to keep things from opening up .

Well the start March and end of February have disappointed with cold and lots of snow considering how the rest of winter was above normal. Long range forecast looks to continue this trend in the...

All done hear in Campton last boil tonight , never had a year without very dark syrup until this one . Better than last year syrup totals wise but not by too much .

Wow is anyone else have a horrible time trying to filter syrup this year the sand is crazy New papers filter in press a few gallons and it plugs up .

Looking for feedback on sealing the qt D&G tin containers . I’ve always used plastic or glass . I’m assuming it’s the same as the plastic jugs . They cap has no tamper type of seal I’m wondering if...

Thankyou Gentleman . Very good answers exactly what I was looking for.

Anyone clean last year's taps with success and reuse without premature tap hole closer.

Turning off vacuum this afternoon . Looks like it’s done . End with very clear sap and dark syrup . A strange year indeed.

Sap ran really well yesterday and as of this morning hasn’t stopped.

Sugar is lucky to be 1.5. I think a week for us about right on the money .

Best run of the season today for us . Keeping at it .

Good luck in the future .

Interesting year temps down than way up . Ran for 3 days without a freeze . Thought I would find a full tank of sap yesterday morning as I can watch pump house with my cameras but outside...

I Was wondering about Russ myself always enjoy fallowing his thread . He’s always about a week ahead of me for starting and finishing the season .

Your right buckeye gold I never did pay myself .

I assume the information Ive heard that packers are paying 1.70 a pound for bulk is syrup is correct. This makes me seriously wonder about the profitability of making syrup.for some . Of course...

So far 2019 in my area has Ben kind of a dud. Lots of snow still in the woods very marginal flow of sap . The warm up shut it off completely. Not sure what to make of this season other than it’s the...

No big runs at white Mt maples in Campton . Closing in on the second latest start in 15 Years for us . Hope the trees wake up soon . Nothing really to talk about yet very modest flow of sap .

Not so good so Far on my end have yet to boil with a ton of work completed and nothing to show for it . I do have some sap but really want enough to rinse membrane and sweetened pan . Spent the warm...

I had one year not to long ago the first boil was March 30th . The season was 3 weeks long to the day . That won’t happen this year . Goodluck . All

Completed tapping yasterday7days on snowshoes. Now for fixing the line issues than fire up the pump next week looks good.

15 day forecast looks cold . Still lots to do so that’s ok .

Taped in the snow all day today up to about 1500 taps in .

Started the process today tapped about 500 . On snow shoes in my area of campton lots of snow in the woods . Shooting for 700 taps tomorrow .

Most likely starting to tap this weekend . Using leader check valves . Think I should be ok no warm up in sight but better a bit early than late .
