If sap is moving in the tree, a  new tap always runs.   A maple tree can be 50′ or more tall.  When we drill a hole at the base of the tree all the sap above that hole now has an outlet and gravity pushes it out.

100 more taps.  Washed spouts in the morning.  Also got hose for the R/O.  We need to replace hoses that went bad over the summer.

Its easy moving around in the woods.  Not much snow.  The ground is still frozen.  Lots of water.  When the ground thaws there will be mud.

Not much of a wintery mix last night.  Lower 40s and cloudy today.

Sap is starting to move in the trees.
