Three inches of wet white stuff today. The snowblower didn't like it very much.

We got a little more than that but I just used the bucket to clean up.

That's the type of storms that I like to see after last winter.

I'd settle for half of that. We still have bare ground and single digit temperatures.

Here's a shot of my rented work space garage which also doubles as my winter toy storage. The ATV and tractor are my main snow weapons. I also have a Craftsman 9HP Tecumseh Snowblower at the ready that's not in the picture.

And my snow toy:

Time for little snow dance I guess.

I have not had mine out of the barn yet this year. Its really cutting into my play money. I usually clear a few hundred each snow.

Few hundred would not pay 1/2 my fuel bill for one night of plowing....

So do you win or lose with no snow? Or have you got some good lake effect dumps this year?
I've plowed once for about 8" of snow and once for 2" just to get the gravel exposed to melt everything off. Maybe tonight we'll get enough for me to plow in the morning, but its been pretty easy going this winter.

That all wheel steer always makes it look like the rear wheel is falling off.

Seen one of our local guys using one with the 4 wheel steering, looked like it did a nice job in tight spaces.....

That is pretty cool to be able to turn that sharp a turn.

The most snow at one time was 30+ inches in a March storm about 15 years ago but the picture shows the average 6-10 inches we usually get :tractor:

The Mahindra 4035 at work this morning. The whole pile in front is from last night's snow. When I went to bed, you could still see grass in the field. At 5:30 this morning, there was a foot and a half of snow on the ground.

OK.....FINALLY we got some snow in NE Ohio, and FINALLY I had to break down and get the snow machine ready. Took the loader off, mounted the front hitch. Put a 1" rubber cutting edge on the blade. Mounted the salt spreader on the weight box, and ran the wiring.
Got it all together finally! Had to run to town and get some hydro connectors for the angle cylinders, had different size couplers. Also had to tweak the electric motor lock screw/splash guard.
tried it all out yesterday, works great! I've got a very steep driveway, after a few trips spinning tires coming back up, it got SLICK.......so loaded up the salt, and used the spreader...worked like magic. The tractor usually takes a 5' blade, but I mounted a 6'....works like a champ. Really like the rubber cutting edge, like a big squegee. The salt spreader sticks out the back of the rig a bit far, so have to be cautious around buildings.
Only had around 3 inches, but enjoyed some great seat time!

Nice looking rig... looks like it could handle a driveway no problem....

Here is an older pic of my TC33D with with the plow & blower.

Second is a pic of my summer project. I mounted a 2" receiver salt spreader by modifying an old truck hitch to fit my 3 point. Today was the first I need to use it and am happy how it worked overall. Only problem was it threw the salt too wide even after I adjusted it to the tightest setting. I will have to work on something to correct that. My drive is 10' wide x 1000' long and steep.
