Finally finished!
Tapped 3 days on snowshoes starting February 19th. 763 taps on gravity tubing. Crazy season, sugar percentage all over the place. Darker syrup early, lighter syrup late. Overflowing run March 19th - 21st. Finished March 29th, latest ever. Boiled 7,500 gal, two weeks ago didn't think I'd get to 3,500 gal. Should finish to about 140 gal of syrup (lower sugar this year).
Hardwick, NJ (near Blairstown)
