Tapping season. That magical time of year when Winter's curses of ice and cold are countered with spells of sun and warmth. Sometimes it takes awhile for the counter-curses to take effect. So far this year, the wizardry has been almost instantaneous.
Around the middle of last week, just before the waving of the wands of warmth, we snuck in the last falls down the hills of Ski Brule. The conditions were good and the hill was largely empty.
