So, I moved in June 2021 to Dietrich Idaho. The house I moved to has a maple tree. I've been meaning to ask for an ID for a while, but I never got around to doing it.

Today, I was tapping the tree and getting some sap for maple syrup. After boiling the sap down to 1/4 what it originally was, it was incredibly sweet. Not thick, but still incredibly sweet.

I suspect this is either a Norway Maple or a sugar maple. Can someone please give me an ID? Pictures of the leaves, the trunk, and the tree itself are attached. If you need more pictures, I'll get them.

Jared
