I plow a driveway with a 10% grade, with a 2N and unloaded tires with chains. I park my tractor in the bartn at the bottom of the hill. The rule is, if I can get out of the barn, and up the Hill, I can plow out my driveway. I live about 20 miles south of Rochester, NY and we get our share of snow. But a 20% grade would seem to me too much for this combo. I would think you'd want a 4 wheel drive tractor of truck. IMHO. By the way 20% means 20 feet rise in a hundred feet of distance. That would be so stepp you'd be hard pressed to drive down it and maintain control. Are you sure about that steepness? 10% is considered steep.....

Take Care
