Pictured above is a new thin-walled fiberglass sap spout. It does less damage to the tree when tapped and the hole in the tree heals more quickly than when previous models are used.
A collar, tee, and spout.
One of the sap heads, making drops.
Another sap head, also making drops.

A snowshoeing sap head.
An icicle, in the calm before the storm.
My kitchen has become taken over in sap supplies. When you are married to a sap head, this is just an inevitable part of late Winter. One more reason I can't wait 'till Spring! Lol!
I hope you are hunkered down and nice and toasty in this storm. Keep safe! Spring WILL come, eventually.
So cool!! We are buried down here

DeleteYou need a "sap head shed" you could put cots in there and everything! :p
