I think if it were my situation I would find 6 trees about 55 minutes closer to you. I know the temptation as I was offered about 150 trees on a perfect sugar bush it has a lot of drop and road access. The problem is it is 1 1/2 hour round trip. That is doable but on the long haul of the season it may be too much. Somebody around you will be willing to let you tap. Jeff
