First boil of the season today. I boiled 75 gallons and got 1.6+ gallons of syrup for a sugar content of 2.17%, so I'm pleased. I started at 10:30 and was jarred by 6.

It looks like the sap should flow nicely over the next 10 days or so, though I would like more sun. I can see the day coming soon where it will be boil, clean-up next day, rinse and repeat, to keep the sap fresh. I don't have a lot of snowbanks for storage this season.
