    Default Tapping Northern Michigan

    Put in 66 taps yesterday in Hale area. Trees are running. Still 8+ inches of snow in the woods. Weather looks good for next 10 days. Last year tapped about the same number but started March 16 and made about 11 gallons of syrup. Season was short but sweet. Hoping for about the same for this year. Family and friends love my hobby...
