Just a little New England snow
« on: February 09, 2013, 11:13:19 AM »
My buddy gave me a call this morning to see if I could help him go recover his Jeep that he was forced to abandon last night on the side of the road. My jeep made it about 6ft out of the garage before the front axle acted like a big plow



Put the snow blower to use and took down as much snow as possible. Pretty much still had about 4" left at the bottom of the driveway, but finally...
Freedom!

You just back up and blast into it, repeat the process till you are clear.
Takes work but you can plow a trail that way.
This still one of the coolest pictures of doing just that, we did blaze a trail through virgin snow a few years back was fun

yeah, i bellied up on a mound and that was that. Reverse didn't help. I used the snow blower around the Jeep and then hopped in, locked the front, rocked back and forth and sawed the front and out she popped. I think i just didn't have the momentum from taking off in the garage.
That pic looks awesome, Art. Where was that taken?
