6 to 10”

[TonyToro Jr. 1,164]

I got to play in the snow a bit about 7” of wet heavy snow. used my C-145 with a single stage blower, my 310-8 with my new acquired 48” plow my mom used one of our 3 Toro CCR 3650s and I also used our big Ariens 1332. The C-145 and Ariens and the 3650 were the main part of the show and my 310-8 with the plow was just for cleanup.

Clean up duty today for both tractors. The plow tractor got what I didn't get with the snowblower yesterday. Pushed the snow and ice to the right side of the driveway and then used the blower to send it out into the field. I think I'm ready for the rain that is coming tomorrow.

Can you please elaborate on this?

 

The windrow from the plowed snow is soft enough for you to use a snowblower? 

 

You do this a lot or only for fluffy snow?

I plowed up the ice, snow and slush and blew all that out into the field. Pretty much what I do after every snow. As you can see by the pictures there's not a lot of room to let snow pile up before I'd be out of room after a few storms. Another factor is if the wind blows out of the south across that field it drifts the driveway. So the lower I can keep the plowed up edge the drifting isn't as bad.

 

And yes this is my regular routine. The tall shoot will throw it out into the field a good 30-40 feet. This snow was on the wet and heavy side. I kinda thought it would clog up, but it did just fine. When I use the blower I have it set a inch above the stone so I'm not blowing stone, because it will blow stone just as easy as snow.
