Hey guys, anybody tapping yet?
I hope that was a joke..lolOriginally Posted by S.S.S
Not really! Some are tapping already.
Nobody is to run, just big operations on vac trying to get their 20k taps in before it starts
Okay that makes more sense.
I had -28 this morning without the windchill.
That's quite a cold snap affecting the Midwest. If you up in the frozen north have cabin fever and really need to read about tapping activity, go to our Missouri Tapping log. Sap has been flowing. John

5/16" & 7/16" plastic spiles, drain into plastic buckets or sapsaks

275 gallon tote goes in that corner. Most years I don't even need to shovel in there. Should be interesting getting around the woods this spring.

Everything here looks like a tunnel now. No more room to put snow anywhere. Snowpiles up as high as my loader will reach. I'm thinking snowshoes for sure Deitze. Jay
