    Had a good weekend at the shack. Had a good turn out on Saturday, but Sunday was a lot slower. Made a couple gallons of dark which is a lot for a tour weekend. Looks like maybe some more sap in the forecast but the end is near. Good luck to the rest of the season. Let it flow.....

    Collected 220 gallons today off of 247 taps, on a 36 hour run. The sap is down to 2% now. I have officially made more than I ever have before, surpassing 35.5 gallon mark set in 2015. I am hoping to make it to 45 gallons and the weather might just cooperate with that plan. I ended up with 6 3/4 gallons for the day.

    Started out yesterday with 600 gallons in the main tank and another 200 in the brook run tank. I boiled off 7.75 gallons of vdr and called it a night with 150 left in the tank. I got a kinda late start today, got to the sugarhouse loaded the cage tank and pump and went to the brook tank. It was an inch from the top, 400 gallons and it was running pretty descent. Pumped it out and went to the sugarhouse and couldn't unload. The main tank was full , so a GREAT day for sap. I had around 875 to start the day , I boiled until 4pm, I had a commitment to make, but the good news is made another 7 plus and I had room for the cage tank in my truck. Ill be there tomorrow at 7am lighting the fire ,going to try and finish it all off . It just makes me shake my head at times, on the days you would swear that your going to have a gusher you get nothing, on the days when your not expecting anything you get the flood, Good luck everyone.

    I hope this part of the season is behind us. This was a few weeks ago but I finally figured out how to post photos.

    I was watching the buds come out here in Whitehall today and the sugar content evaporate on me. Last boil and will make just over 50 gallons. Fantastic season

    Had a good year here on the hill. The weather was odd again for sure. The syrup this year was darker than usual but has a excellent flavor to it. Clean up is almost done and taps all pulled. Have a few things to do for next year. I think I'm going to start cutting more under growth this year and clean up my woods more. Good luck to everyone that's still going.....
