Here's what you can do with chains on the front and rear tires. Once you run out of space to pile the snow you have little choice but to go higher.
I am going to try and find a used snow blower this week

I find I end up having to do that too. I always say I'm going to be more consciencious about pushing the snow further away from the driveway....but I end up having to go "up" as well. A snow blower would be a nice solution. It's just that if I had the $$ for one...I'd rather spend it on a chipper anyway! ;)

Just don't flip that sucker over onto it's back. They might be funny to watch while they squirm around with thier wheels in the air, but not so much fun when you are under ....

I've got a customer that built a 12' tall bank in back of his house for the grand kids to slide down. It was done with a BX with a loader and turf tires! No chains! I've been doing the same with a used B-2910 we took in trade with a hoe on the back with turfs and no chains this winter.

Great pics North, I do the same thing. Part of my motivation is to provide snow-cave digging opportunities for the kids.

Isn't it ironic though, that we spend all this time, effort and money doing something that will completely vanish in a couple of months. Part of life in the snowbelt, eh?

I wish you guys would quit bragging. I've only gotten to plow snow once this year. Rain just doesn't seem to pile up the same way on my hillside.

Agreed, no privacy fence so far this year.
