    Where I am, I don't think my sap run has even really started. I know the temps are planned to be high for next week. But there is 3' + feet of snow in my woods. In the higher elevation of the bush, I think it has opened up only two or three times since the start of 2015. It never really ran more than a trickle today as it was hovering at 32/33. I just might make syrup in May for the first time ever.

    Spud, sorry to hear about the leaking CV's. I also had some with pin holes and several others that broke when tapping. Think I may have a couple more out there. But the snow is still so deep, it is really hard going. I was thinking the other day how to entice tourist to search for leaks on "sugaring snowshoe tours". Like a free army of leak hunters. I hope the idea works.
