Each year we tap over 1,000 trees at Bear Paw Scout Camp and collect sap through gravity feed tubing collection as well as drop lines into 5 gallon pails.  All the sap is brought to our sugar shack where it is boiled from sap to syrup.  It takes, on average, 40 gallons of sap to create 1 gallon of maple syrup.  After boiling the sap to syrup we bottle this syrup and sell it on site in our Bear Paw Trading Post.  This program would not be possible to make our Bear Paw Maple Syrup without the dedicated volunteers who are responsible for our maple syrup operations year round.
