Most skid steer snow buckets have a high back and you can't see the cutting edge. They work well but you have to be careful in heavy wet snow as they can tip the machine forward. If you want to make long trails for feeding an angle blade works better. A skid steer works great moving snow but can only push so much. An angle blade lets you keep going. If you need to get under hard packed snow, just tilt the blade forward a bit. I put a 7 ft. heavy duty blade on a skid steer cause I didn't have a snow bucket at the time. I temporarily just tacked it onto the quick attach frame. I had it straight and couldn't angle it. It dug up the really hard packed ice and snow in parking lots better than a curved new grader blade on the bottom of a snow bucket. It rolled all the chunks too. If I needed even more down force, I tilted the blade forward and it scraped right to bare pavement no problem. Off of pavement, I think you'd want some skid shoes so you didn't start digging up grass and dirt. Dave
