i swear, by the end of next year i'll figure out when my new trees are going to run. I went over to the woods today to see if i could scrape up 10-20 gallons from the last run to finish off a little boil i worked on today. and low and behold there was almost 190 gallons in the tank at 630. These mountain trees run so differently than my trees i tapped last year, either way I'm happy they ran, i had just finished sweetening the pan again this afternoon, and i ran about 150 gallons through it tonight before i decided to call it an evening.
I might be able to salvage this season yet.
