Latest run a little under 1.5gpt sap at 1.2%. The climb in sugar was a welcome surprise.

was hoping to get some sap yesterday and today but the trees basically gave me nothing. probably 1/4 gpt from yesterday into today. next few days look like similar conditions. hopefully the season will pick back up for me come the end of the weekend. seems like an odd year... but i also feel like i'm thinking that most years.

Good luck to all!
Things are going slow up my way also. I got about 500 gallons yesterday and today the sap is running a bit better but not great. I think we still have 3+ weeks to go. A lot can happen in that time.
