I had a similar experience last week (Northern NY). I hadn't been up in two weeks. Towards the bottom of the snow, it was packed and nearly ice (presumably from the ground heat). I hit some large rocks from my driveway, too. Took me 4 hours total to get the place opened up satisfactorily. The end of the driveway had a nice 2.5-3 foot pile of snow from the plow. Just used the bucket to move that stuff. Had a tree down across the driveway that needed to be removed. Lots of work. I have a rear-mounted blower on my B2601. Cheers to 2023. Looking forward to seeing more of your content!

I live near Leavenworth WA. We moved here 25 years ago. I had a 20 hp Cub Cadet that I used for my 2 acre lawn near Seattle. I bought an Erskine rear mounted snow blower to use here in the mountains. I used the Cub Cadet for about 15 years, and as climate change is occurring, it got to where 20hp was not enough for the heavier, wetter snow. So about 9 years ago I bought a Kubota B2650. It was great in the beginning, but it is getting warmer and warmer, and the 26 hp is not enough for this new style heavy wet snow. So I have an LX 4020 on order, I’ll get it next week. Your videos dealing with the deep, wet snow are the closest depiction of the reality of using the equipment in real life that I have seen. The dealer videos show them moving 4 to 6 inches of dry, powdery fluff with ease. I get that a few times a year, the rest is Pacific Northwest concrete snow. I have an SB 1064 rear mount snow thrower….I’ve been driving backwards for 25 years so I’m used to it. I’m just not willing to forego the bucket on the front, which works fine in the wet stuff. Thanks for the great videos, I can’t wait for the LX 4020!

I hope all is well and you got it done today. Years ago back in Nebraska we had an uncharacteristically large storm system roll though our area. The plows had a hard time getting through the 6-10 foot drifts caused by downed trees. They ended up dragging the trees out to a staging area to be dealt with later. As I watched today it seemed like it would have been nice to have an area like one of your pull offs to drags trees to so it didn't take as long cutting up trees along the way. I would also be the guy that would rent a small dozer and clear the tree line back 5-7 meters back on each side.

At the 10:30 mark you were using your rear blade, angling it, to pull the snow off of the road. What I suggest is that you can ALSO PUSH THE SNOW off of your drive by keeping the same angle of the blade and driving in REVERSE to PUSH the snow to your left. So you will be PULLING the snow off to your right, and PUSHING the snow off to the left. This way you are not "dead heading" and making wasted trips to. A lot more efficient and no wasted time. Just a suggestion, as this is what I do and it works well for me.

I enjoyed this video! We have 40 acres in Northern Idaho. My snowblower is on the 3 point hitch so I'm backing to blow snow. And, my chute is all manual so it's climb off and adjust every time I need to blow snow in another direction. Having hydraulics on the chute would be marvelous! I do have the hard cab and heat in the cab. We have had 2 and a half feet of snow so far this winter. That keeps me busy keeping the long driveway to the county road open.

While recognizing how troublesome it can be to clear the long driveway, it sure is beautiful up there. We had similar conditions at our northern property but I haven’t tried to clear it yet. It has melted down significantly with this extended (and record-breaking) warmup, but according to my cell cams, there’s still a good chunk of snow up there. Sadly, it’s totally melted down here at home. Looking forward to Part 3! Happy New Year!

Thanks for the tips. I use my cross country skis to ski into my property then I fire up the Kabota tractor with the snowblower and go. I have a hill but it’s not as steep as yours and So far I haven’t needed chains. We had 20 inches of Cold snow and the Kabota worked beautifully and luckily no downed trees in my half mile driveway. Beautiful skiing for a few days then a warm up came and melted all the snow in northern Michigan. I was lucky to find my property and I’m a tree farmer on 50 acres. I did not know what I was getting into with the half mile driveway but it’s certainly worth it because it’s very remote quiet and private. After a Ski in I get the Kabota tractor out to do my driveway and drive in. It’s an adventure in winter and quiet in the other seasons. Hope I stay young

Hey Gord... yet an other underestimate of the challenges of snow. It's so pretty how can it be so hard!!! Well it is tough.... I like how you knocked the snow off the over head hanging branches to help bring snow down... although you'll miss the snow going down the back of your neck... lol...I will suggest one thing. Turn the blade around so you won't take the gravel as you pull the snow out of the way...but I know everyone's situation is different... looking forward to number 3 in your series of "Guy was right".... lol

Hi Gord, I feel your pain. We had a similar winter storm last year in Manitoba for the first real snow of the season. It was wet and heavy going to get it cleaned up, but you had to deal with way more. Seeing you try to run without chains made me realize just how important they are for you. I am really enjoying the videos and really grateful that you took the time to capture the video. I’m sure taking time to setup those shots cost you some meaningful daylight. Can’t wait for part 3!

That heavy wet snow.... Slow and steady wins I guess. I think I heard Tim Allen's "Tim the Toolman Taylor" grunts when you hooked up to that tree and yanked it down the trail a ways. Looks like your Kubota is more than up for the task, just needs those chains for a little more traction. Looking forward to part 3. I see what you meant from your fist video, though - getting back into your cabin and getting the driveway cleared for access is not for the faint of heart.

Great job GP! We are south of the border in Washington and have had the heavy snow, warmups then freezes and more snow. I have been pushing heavy deep snow, wet slushy snow and ice dams across the end of the driveway left by county road plows (graders) with my Lx2610. It is a lot of work but this tractor with cab makes it much easier and enjoyable than our old open cab L2801. I look forward to Part 3. Keep plowing and blowing!

GP, this is FUN to watch! I would love for you to try a set of R14 hybrid tires. I couldn't BELIEVE the difference between them and R4 for snow traction. I was never able to go up my steep asphalt driveway with R4's, but never slipped even once with R14's. I have a couple of neighbors that I wouldn't even attempt their driveway until I used the R14's and they worked without a slip.

When the snow builds up like that, and you have a smaller size tractor, you can't beat a front snowblower (and I'm pro-rear lol). To get the chains on, lie them out flat and straight, back onto them enough that you can tie them onto the wheel with rope (thread through the wheel), then slowly keep backing up until you get them all the way around about 1/3rd the way up for easy access to simply add the shackles = Good to go. There's probably videos on it, a few minutes of research and you'll save yourself a lot of heartache! Good thinking bringing the chainsaw right off the bat! As for the hard packed layer, a few more years and you'll get it down to where you'll almost never snap a shear bolt. As you've picked up on it saves you unnecessary expenses. You're aware of it and that's more than I can say for others that just scrape right down to the boulders and gravel. I know some contractors who've had the same snowblower for almost 20 years and never did anything but pure maintenance, never touched it up with paint, looks almost fresh inside the chutes = They know what they're doing. Some guys never want to learn, and switch out every 5 years.

Good morning and thanks - yes, good lesson learned for me. The chainsaw has been excellent for smaller limbs/branches ( less than 6-7"). The lithium battery still holds it's charge a very long time between uses and I get about 60 minutes of cutting time from it. Thanks again - have a wonderful holidays season!

Greetings fellow deep snow sufferer. As a mountain dweller here in the Rockies of Montana I have learned a couple of things regarding clearing my mile long driveway which drops 1000 feet or climbs continuously when going the other way, which I'll pass along to you. 1. Put chains on the tractor early in the season and leave them on, when snow surprises come you're prepared. 2.Put good spiked chains on ALL FOUR TIRES, front tires without gripping chains are almost useless and the front chains do help with steering especially in 4 wheel drive. Since you and I have the same rear tire chains, I'm interested to see if you experience the same snow packing around the chains/tires that I do when you are working the type of snow you're in at this time. Snow packs on my chains and I find myself trying to drive with snow slicks, (doesn't work worth a darn). Like you in this series I've had to hump up my mile long road in the past in deep snow, (why was it always uphill), but at 80 years old its no longer fun...it's still possible for me but its accompanied with a lot of growling and swearing. I wish you well Gord, you've got guts!!! So far I've seen no evidence of mountain lions, wolves or bears in your videos, come on down and I'll share mine with you. Makes walking the road so much more interesting...

We had the same storm in Vermont and got 20+ inches. No fun. 2. I never assume that the ground is frozen until mid February. 3. Chains go on the first week in November regardless. Do you like the electric chainsaw. Looking at the 60V Dewalt. Good luck on the rest of this adventure Mister. Get a few Molson Red Labels and sit next to the stove. Best

Great video again, Gordon! Looking forward to the continuing saga. I was yelling at you at the start of the video "Where are your chains!" Guess you didn't hear me.

Got to love those electric chain saws, 🎉🚜🪝you will get it just keep on plowing, blowing. We got more snow but keep it cleared most time, then it get warm and makes the snow a lot heavier. Thanks 🇨🇦 🇺🇸

Gord, not to be rude, but a pair of good lightweight snowshoes like they sell at Mountain Equipment Co-op are a necessary piece of gear to keep in your truck when your tractor is a mile up the road. Yes, they work and are better with a set of poles. Great videos.

Morning Mike. You are never rude my friend - that is an excellent idea. One I need to look into. Thanks - have a great New Years!

A few more HP and some tire chains would have been good for the snow blowing on this job. More rear axle weigh looks like a good future addition to counterbalance the blower weight.

That why I took them tires off my kubuto, I found that tuff tires work much better in snow and soft going in the wood . GP you need a pair off alum snowshoe in your truck . It’s will come with time , probably wishing you have a 105 horsepower kubuto now . I got 920 , 950 and 988 CAT loader park by my door . Wait for the white gold to come , so far to date might have 2 cm .

I grooved the tires on my tractor with a groover made a night and day difference with traction .

Here is southeastern Pennsylvania we get mostly wet snow. I've always used a plow on my garden tractor [we don't get deep snow like you do.] I have a blower, but I rarely use it. The plow really does work better. I also have two tractors so I have the option of the blower on one and the plow on the other. Being rear-wheel drive, I have chains on before the first snow flies. I wonder if an old "beater" four-wheel drive truck with a V plow might be a better solution for your wet snow. P.S. When using the blower, I find it works better if you let the wet snow freeze solid, but I can see in your situation you don't have that option.

This is more fun to watch than Marauder taking 2 inches of snow off someone's driveway.

Need more ballast weight! I assume you have loaded tired, but the blade is not providing enough ballast. I know the chains get it done for traction but I’d still add weight if possible.

Saw all your tires spinning. Chains on the back are a must, not to mention enough rear weight. You're sure ambitious though.

I see the power is on in the house. Must have underground primary feeding your place? Overhead lines in trees and snow is a prescription for a long outage. Retired Lineman

I guess NO one would want to try to go back to your cabin. Do you have a snowmobile Gord ? I think that would have been a better thing to have up there. Good thing people know where you are at, might not find you till spring.........lol !

Looks like a challenge. Has me thinking twice about a front mount snow blower. I'd almost prefer a 3pt one and driving backwards all winter to retain the loader and grapple.
