Hi Guys,

I hope everybody had a great new year's eve celebration. I probably eat and drunk too much....but it was fun!

As many of you may have heard, we had a pretty significant snow storm here in Colorado.
I am attaching some pictures of me pushing the snow in the farm roads with my JM284.
I had to "rescue" a couple of friends trapped in their homes so I loaded the tractor on a trailer and cleaned their streets too.

First time I put the tractor on a trailer so it was quite a learning experience for me (not to mention how tough was driving with the trailer, given the road conditions!). The Jinma was a snow champion!

No hat or gloves and blue sky w/good equipment,yeah that's good way to spend the day removing snow...you have almost more snow on the trailer than we have on our lawn.

You caught some good details! I actually started with the usual snow gear (gloves, hat, coat, etc) but the day was so nice I shed most of my snow clothes. That's the beauty of Colorado!

2 of my wifes sisters live outside of Denver where it is flat. they got hit with a lot of snow and are out away from things like you are, they Both called this morning to say Happy New Year and thanked me for talking them into buying 284 Jinma's this past summer. The one brother in law has been pushing snow for days helping neighbors who have no tractors. The other brother in law has been cleaning roads where they live, he said he has enough pies and booze to last a life time givin to him from greatful neighbors.

I do have a 5ft and a 7ft blade but for those pictures I was just clearing a short trail to access a corral so I didn't bother attaching the blade...
