Well from almost clear yard and orchard to now a white covering over a foot deep .
Ran out about a hour back to pick up a few things and most roads are not plowed , MN Dot has pulled the plows on State roads - county did plow road here earlier but now have also pulled the plows .
Debating on if I should plow or wait until tomorrow as the ground and driveway are soft and with plow it will move more dirt than snow . So might just use bucket on skid loader and skim the top layer off .
Driving is following a track and hope the guy coming at you is not using same set of tracks . Hard to keep moving in a straight line and few cars seem to have found parking in the ditch the easy way to come to a stop.
Something about having 4 wheel drive that makes it a little easier to get around , so the Jeep Cherokee 4WD works good - that selector for snow ?? guess I will have to read the manual to find out what it does over the other 3 selections
