The snow got to deep for the pickups with plows at the airport next to me.

So they make a round and make a windrow and I blow it off for them.

Then they can make another round.

Someday I'm gonna have a front mount blower.

My neck is sore tonite.

What kind of setup is that to have two chutes directing snow from the blower?

Its a single stage blower with two beaters instead of one in the middle.

Little more capacity for a single stage that way.

Brand is Badger.

Oh no,its just a little local airport known as Greencastle Airport.

It borders my property.

I trade snow blowing for plane rides.

so you're the place west of the airport, or east? I'm from S. Amana, and spent quite a bit of time hunting that public land...not sure i'm too keen on doing that anymore...I just don't know how someone could shoot as many times at something as some of the people up there do, and I'm sure they're not keeping track of all those shots to know what's on the other side of the critter.

The area you see in the first photo is already plowed.

The windrow I'm blowing there is a wet 18 inches deep.

And if we leave the windrows it will blow shut whatever depth the windrow is.

The snow itself was 6".
