I have the front mounted blower, never an issue on gravel. Just have to watch your height while hitting it. Oh and I get some SNOW up here, 4ft over Christmas this year average over 200"a year. (You gotta love LES) like others have said pushers and or a FEL you'll limit where you can move a pile.
I do have a BH on for counter weight and to have the ability to get myself out any bad positions i seem to get myself into.

I was in the exact same boat as you. I live in northern minnesota and we get pounded with snow. I went with a 6 foot 3 point blower, agriease brand. It's a cheaper brand but works well. Then I use the FEL to make small trails to a couple sheds in the yard. It's nice having the option to blow certain areas than scoop out other areas. And turning around and driving backwards isn't bad at all in my opinion, but I'm still pretty young. I can see people with back or neck problems would have issues

Hello all....Purchased a B2650 this summer and I love this thing...got rid of an old 8n I had been keeping on life support...love this forum too....been lurking some...anyway , I am looking ahead to the Winter up here in the foot hills of the Adirondack Mnts. I was looking at Snow Pushers for snow removal but then a light came on and I changed my mind and now am considering the Woodmaxx SB60 3 pt blower....I know this blower can handle anything we get here for snow and seeings how I have the 60" loader bucket I am thinking a pusher would be a waste of money... 18 acres of land here and driveway about 50 yards long...my question is ...am I doing the right thing by going with a blower? or ????

While a 3PT blower may cause back/neck pain, my main concern was going down a hill backwards out onto a fairly well traveled road. I find it a little easier to steer the tractor going forward sliding down the driveway...
