Snow Stuck in the snow

Oh, it's trthe tractor all right. With chains on the rear and even the front tires a 4WD tractor can go most anywhere.

We had a major storm blow through our area (NE shore of Lake Superior) again. 60+ mph winds and 18" of fresh snow.

I had the fully chained Kubota out today for 2 1/2 hours cleaning the snow up.

Hi Northland,

Looks like u got some quality seat time happening there. Is that Canexel siding on your house? If so, looks like same stuff I just built with. Has it held up well? For how long?

Snow hit us today in Ottawa. I think we'll get less than 30cm but drift could be much more in my drive. I was clearing this afternoon in blowing storm just to get car out. Expect more fun tomorrow :D

Actually it's wavy cedar and it's now 17 years old and holding up very well:)

The CanExcel looks great though and will last lifetme with nothing to maintain. My brother sided his new cottage with it.

Here are some pictures of our North Idaho snow. Another foot is predicted for today and tomorrow.

With snow like that you might need a snowblower to move it away a bit!
wow.

I bought the canapy with the B7510 new, so Kubota. I knew I would need one and am glad I just got it up front.

How well does the back blade work? I have a mile driveway that I use a Chevy with a plow to clear, but it is getting old. It broke down the other day and made me start thinking about redundancy. A blower would be great this year, but most winters we are into the gravel on and off throughout the season.

The rear blade works very well and leaves a nice clean surface. I only paid $275 for that 6' King Kutter rear blade at Tractor Supply and while it has been worth the money I wish I had spent more $ and bought one that has the offset/tilt feature so it would be better on surfaces that are not flat.

We get a lot of snow (13+ feet) each winter and the FEL/rear blade combo works well for me. However, I am running out of places to pile that snow so I am going to buy a used 60' rear snow blower this week.
