[snowbelter 0]

Thought you guys would appreciate these photos of my 520 (aka:"THE BELTER") in action. They are of one day in a week long storm that made national headlines for dumping 12 feet of snow in Mexico,NY http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00701.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00702.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00703.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00715.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00718.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00722.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00713.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00094.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/h...rm/DSC00089.jpg

Wow....thats insane!

How long did it take to cut the path where it looks like your driveing by a bird feeder?

I'm thinking you needed a flame thrower...not a snow blower.

[Cody 277]

Wow that's alot of snow!!! But looks like that good ole wheel horse didn't have any problem cutting through the snow.

Nice rig with the cab! What is that on the back for the weight box?? Yup, not really looking forward to those snows of March as well, looks like they got it done though! Great pics! What is the depth at the bird feeder, 3 ft??

SnowBelter,

perfectly done.

Having traveled thru your neck of the woods up RTE 12 and 81 for 30+ years, these types of snowfalls became what I expected every winter.

Don't hesitate to tell the folks here that this is ONE STORM and sometimes the total accumulation for a "storm" is measured in FEET - not inches. Not feet in a drift, feet in measured downfall.

Looking good sir, thanks for the pics.

Hey guys yeah it was quit a storm I wish I could have had photos open and in order for you but still learning site . Not sure how long path took but mid-week my 100' circle drive turned into a half circle ,3-4hour nighttime cleanup then 1-2hour morning cleanup was taking its toll on top of 5 ,12-hour work days. But I'm proud to say WH earned my respect through those hard days. Yes the tractor with cab (and myself ) is the same tractor and photo is recent.I almost wish I could go back and do it again with my rig set up the way it is now .......... almost!http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/hallfam3418/feb%202007%20winter%20storm/DSC00078-1.jpg

[Duff 206]

Duff :banghead:

My only add on this and you already said it ... would have been great to have the cab on BEFORE you had to take on that storm. My vote for the calander too.

[Operator 7]

WOW!! How often you guys get that kind of snow? And afterwards does the temp. go into the below zero mode like we get over here after snowfall?

Nice cab! was it for a Horse? or a refab? I just got the same style, got to mount it up yet. Fits good but the lower parts of doors will need revamping.

I hope you don't mind if I embed all of those links in IMG tags so lazy bastages like myself don't have to click all those links to see the pictures. (Say the word and I'll delete the post.)

A little more snow and you're going to need a bigger boat!

[Rollerman 290]

Thank you Hank.

I actually tried to do it earlier & didn't get something right then just excepted the fact I probably was up to early.

Again snowbelter I am in awe of that amount of snowfall.

It really shows what the Wheel Horse brand is capeable of!

Looks like the chgo. storm of 1967

Hey Snowbelter -from your location -

Is that whats known as a lake effect snow ??

How far are you from Poliski ,NY ?? Good fishing up there

Oh yea

:thumbs:

[stevasaurus 23,453]

Snowbelter... ...terrific pictures and I vote for the calandar also.

Not that the horse would get stuck or anything...but if that did happen with the cab on during the first swype, would you be able to get out?

w9jab...I remember that 67 Chicago snow...was delivering pizzas that night in an Opel Cadet. Manual trans, it would get stuck...I would put it in 2nd gear and get out and push with the tires turnning, and run and hop back in. Too old for that anymore. :thumbs:
