The snowblower is fixed. My dismay was based upon inexperience; a part readily designed to break to prevent long term damage did in fact break. A small bolt to the rescue, the demon beast on tracks is seemingly fully operational. It does not like my snow, however, heavy, thick, wet and deep.
Moon Bug loves the snow, sans tracks. It can move, shove, and pile this stuff readily. After work, I start putting the tracks on, so it’s non-operational until all four are installed. My first try, but I am equally excited to see it rise on the tracks.
The sun plays great games with the snow. Some drifts are shallow, some many feet deep. We are staying put this weekend, letting the melt continue. I’ve heard most of the park is plowed out (and saw some folks plowing on another ridge), but I also heard plowing is not allowed. There are rules, but there are no rules. My patch is lovely, nonetheless.
