Snow Blowing 1

[Dwight Bremer]

We got around a foot of snow Friday. Operator could use some practice; like not backing over the snow rather than around it!

I got it too. Then it rained, then got dumped on again yesterday. Now it was plus 5*C today and is supposed to rain rest of the week. I wish it would just stay cold.

That wet crap was too much for my RTV-X1100C and vee plow to handle. Ended up getting the tractor out and blowing it. I let my kid shovel all the roof's off, LOL

Just got around to cleaning the truck and trailer out today.

I'm almost ready to buy a Grand L like yours if this keeps up, LOL

I'm hoping to not have to plow anything until after the first of the year. So far, so good.

It must be nice not to have to BACK into it!

Last week blowing after the 6-8” dump was surreal. Heated cab with my tunes playing
on my Isotunes ear protection. I have been blowing a 1/4 mile driveway with an open
station tractor since 1985. No Carharts needed!

You can clean the driveway in your underwear if you want!

I kind of miss the front mount snow blower I had on my BX25D. It was perfect for removing snow around the house and the asphalt driveway. That's a great setup you have there for dealing with snow. I'm looking forward to my first winter being inside a cab and I'm hoping for massive amounts of snow this year!

No doubt, I am continually turning the heat down.

It looks like it might be a while before snow removal is necessar.
All green here in northern lower Michigan.

lol, I'm with Snowman7. I finished the motorized chute conversion on my blower and now the temps are in the 60's. . .

It would be great to have an enclosed cab, during winter weather, but I would need to take it off to work in the woods the other 7 months if the year, or it would get destroyed in the heavy trees.
So, I’ll put on my bibs and Carhart jacket and clear off my 1400’ driveway as needed. Front blower and rear blade, it’s not so bad…….. helps keep the out of staters from moving in!

I hear you, I would have loved to keep my old JD 770 just for the woods but I would have lost a wife. When I got the new tractor in May I took a walk with my saw down all of my main trails and
made sure I had clearance. I was a nervous wreck the first few firewood trips but am comfortable
now. I just keep the tractor on the main trails.
