LAKE TAHOE 700+ INCH WINTER! - 4k - PLOWING SNOW CAT 938M-SNOWBLOWER

What a winter it has been, over 700 inches of snow so far. March 25th 2023. Beautiful sunny day plowing. Blowing snow with an RPM TECH LM 220 that has its own 300 HP diesel engine and weighs 10,000 lbs. Finally got a better camera thanks to ol Jensy ‪@jensengranger‬ ! Thanks for watching!

Bought this for my small back deck in the Eastern Sierra. kzbin.infoUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN We get A LOT of HEAVY snow so I was a bit skeptical but it was worth it! After the first storm of the year this has exceeded expectations! It throws snow very well, even 10-12” + that said the more it piles up the harder it is to maneuver the machine. It is exceptionally light weight and overall exactly what I was looking for. If you have a large amount of snow and a lot of area to clear, you may consider something with a drive engine to help maneuverability, but for decks, second stories, roofs etc, you can’t beat the light weight to great snow throwing ratio. Side note, the chute rotator is a bit flimsy and it initially didn’t seem to work, after a few uses it seems to have loosened up.

Wow finally a video of someone actually clearing the snow…that snowblower is BIG!…awesome video.

[@Jfenley]

Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@teamdrummond6915]

Agreed. I've watched videos of residents trying to move snow but couldn't handle it entirely. ❤

[@michaeldougfir9807]

Well I must say, you were very considerate not to blast that pine tree at the end. I enjoyed watching your work. Very professional I thought.

[@Jfenley]

It took a lot to not pretend it wasn’t there 😂 Thanks for watching!

[@raymondj8768]

Its a winter wonderland lol great machine !!!

[@dt-4535]

From sunny Newport Beach OC, thank you for the video, dude 👍🏻

[@Jfenley]

Thanks for watching!

[@edmonhaddad3335]

Thats an awesome machine combo. Must be a blast to operate it.

[@Jfenley]

It has been awesome for keeping up with all this snow! Definitely feel lucky to have such a nice setup

[@bwillan]

Great video showing this beast of a snowblower in action. I wouldn't be surprised if this snow pack doesn't completely melt away before next winter.

[@Jfenley]

Me neither! Thanks for watching

[@rollingcoal9500]

You know you got a lot of snow when this beast has trouble finding places to blow it 👍👍

[@neilcunningham6282]

Good thing they still have gas and diesel!!!!!!

[@denniscrane9753]

😂 imagine the backlash when they don’t!

[@slymcfly123]

Putting in work with that thing. 💪

[@Jfenley]

The machines have had quite a year!

[@lutomson3496]

we had a couple of bluebird days, snowing again here now

[@stanguay169]

Nice video, that's just too much snow!!

[@Jfenley]

Thanks for watching!

[@The_JEB]

I want one of them snowblowers, would make clearing the driveway easier

[@ynot0714]

Great job!

[@Jfenley]

Thank you!

[@terrytenley9327]

The snowblower is big and it has its own diesel motor powering auger.. The front end loader just moves and and has the capacity to pick up the blower too.. Extreme equipment for extreme jobs..☺️

[@nrobinson8713]

Is this for town roads or private? Great video. Keep up the good work.

[@Useitorloseit1]

More HP!!

[@tjlovesrachel]

Nice machine …. I was personally hoping to hear a Detroit on that thing

[@Jfenley]

You and me both!

[@jeffjansen582]

Great vid, how many hp is that blower?

[@Jfenley]

Thanks! 300HP

[@tjlovesrachel]

It was in the first 5 sec of the video

[@Mudpuppyjunior]

So how do you avoid finding a buried granite shelf or boulder when the snowbanks are that big and it's often not too clear where the edge of the pavement is?

[@caullinsmith6210]

more than likely hes been plowing/blowing snow here long enough to just know where his do's and don't's are. Ive been plowing our parking lot for about 12 years and even though its covered in snow your brain still has an idea of where things are

[@Jfenley]

Snow stakes in some spots and a good memory of the area! It’s inevitable that some stuff gets messed up on a huge winter like we have had, especially with the banks melting out between storms. But we try to keep it to a minimum and not get greedy when cutting banks in the blower!

[@neilcunningham6282]

Wow where is all those electric cars? Guess they can not plow snow!!!!😂

[@Jason.Cruise]

Ever hit a parked vehicle buried in the snow with the blower ?

[@Remirazor86]

I watched it happen to the back of an suv it’s interesting seeing car parts come out of a blower

[@buyamerican3191]

Isn't it strange how liberals can't tolerate diesel engine smoke but when it comes to getting out to Tim Horton's to get their $6.00 coffee it's necessary?

[@jeffclark6202]

Hey, I thought Californians are supposed to use electricity powered equipment. Hey man, Get with the program.

[@TheHonestPeanut]

No they just use the right equipment for the job instead of holding onto some lame, outdated fantasy and then complaining about how much they have to pay for gas or diesel or repairs or whatever. If you commute 15 miles to an office and don't leave the city, get an EV. If you're job is to move the world, use a huge diesel powerplant.

[@RobertSmith-hj9ms]

Nice cold start up. Are you on the west shore?

[@Jfenley]

Was definitely a rough one! Just outside of Tahoe city towards lake forest
