We got about a foot and half of snow day before yesterday. Real heavy and very hard to plow. Spent all day moving it, plowing it, shoveling roofs, etc. Then last night? Got over three more feet and again super heavy snow.
I've got snow around my house with depths 3 foot to 6 foot depending on how the wind blew it. Back door of the house is buried and some lower roof eaves now lower then the snow.
And like an idiot what did I NOT do? I did NOT put my Deere 3 point hitch 6 foot snowblower on a tractor and have it ready to use. It now sits out in the middle of a field and I don't think there's any chance of getting to it. I'm on the side of a steep mountain. My tractor with chains might make it down the hill across the field, but will never make it back up.
I've got chains on all four wheels on my old 83 diesel Blazer plow-truck and have gettting stuck a lot. I blame Al Gore for me not having my snowblower mounted on a tractor. I've been sitting here waiting for some "global warming."
Spring IS around the corner,correct??
I put out my maple taps a few days ago, and this sort of snow always seem to come after I run some sap-lines.
Many of these photos were taken after I already plowed twice and just show new snow since late last night.
Look close and you can see my old Dodge 1969 Powerwagon buried by the side of the road.
Back door no longer in sight
Solar panels not working so good, and maybe I should not have parked an SUV there?

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
