I've been reading some of the posts about moving snow. Some of you have been dealing with 1 to 2 feet (or more) of snow at a time. We've been getting it more gradually, 2 to 3 inches at a time for a total of about 13 inches so far this month. I've been pushing it to the edge and piling it up with my rear blade. Last night we got 5" and I'm running out of room for it! By the time I get halfway down my driveway, even with the blade angled, it starts falling back over the top edge of the blade. I'm running out of room on the edge to push it to. If we get any more before this melts, I'll need a FEL (which is in the plans, but I don't have it yet) to move it out of the way. I'm glad this is not a typical winter, this has gone from "fun tractor time" to "a pain"! I sure am glad I'm fortunate enough to have the tractor though!

Mosey,

Im not sorry?? Im like a kid with a new toy. I have this TC29D just sitting in the garage with no snow. I don't think we have gotten 10 inches this year. And what we got melted the next day. I would love a 10-20" dump anytime. Im seriously thinking getting the 72"MMM out. I thought I saw some green on the grass yesterday.

Murph - I see from your profile that you're in MN. You folks get the strangest weather. A few years ago in July I was complaining about how hot it was here in southern IN - it was in the mid 90's. But, it was over 100 up in MN! You have to put up with cold winters AND hot summers. And now, no snow to play in. I would move!
