N.w. Wisconsin 2023

[Brad W Wi]

I'm going to "giver a go" again this year. I've got my trails all set and I'm getting the evaporator set to go. Just finished a warm spell that planted the seed. How is everyone else up here in the northwest corner doing? I'm in S.E. Sawyer co.

Too early foe me. Too much snow. I am going to wait until after Birkie. We are suppose to have a major snow next week.

I’ve got the fever but the snow keeps cooling it off. I’m starting prep work at the house. Trail work in the woods will be in a week or so. I imagine the snowmobiles will be stuck a few times! ��

Brad, I'm your neighbor to the west. Did you tap yet? I'm still holding off for better weather. These weekly storms are kicking my butt. I've made syrup until April 21st before so I'm not giving up hope just so it doesn't go from 0 to 70. Good luck

I tapped a couple good trees next to the garage tonight and was running about a drop a second. Might run a little tomorrow but will freeze up until next week. Put in about hallf the taps out tonight on snowshoes. Made it to 2 trees before giving up and putting snowshoes on. Was still rough.

I put out 20 taps March 16, they were all wet, got about a half gallon per before the cold front came in. I'll put out another 20 tomorrow- it's brutal weather but I can walk on top of the two feet of snow. It's going to be tough collecting- we'll see, but I might dump some early run if I'm up to my hips in snow as it softens- heresy to dump sap! Cumberland, WI.

We were finally able to tap one sap line yesterday, on snowshoes, most were dripping fairly quickly. There is no frost in the ground up here, so I'm thinking it's going to start and end quickly. Happy Sapping!
