I was in New Liskeard at the Waterfront Inn in 2003 and woke up to -30 temps. I was riding a '97 ZRT 800. The thing was a pig to pull over in warm temps and rope was locked solid on this day. Well, 3 of us pulled on the rope, ended up pulling the plugs and hitting them with a lighter, gas down the plug hole. Finally fired after 20 minutes. I thought I'd teach her a lesson and I ripped wide open across the lake to the trail. It ran ok the rest of the day but the next time I rode it she just wasn't right. Tear down showed she'd had a crank bearing in the bottom blow apart, went through the cylinder destroying the piston and cylinder.....lol Sold it for parts. I was a bit more gracious with warm ups after that. -
I feel for you brother. Its been a tough winter and its only the first week of Jan. I sledded Sunday with my buddy who plowed for me for 5 years. He said "fawk, I'm glad we quit when we did. This winter would have killed me." I miss plowing but this year its been enough just taking care for my own property and my mother's. Oh, and I love driving by my old lots and seeing how terribly they are been cared for.

I don't use salt. I use limestone for grit. Keeps the ice pack on the driveway, and stones off the lawn. I also have a blade for my front end loader with serated teeth on it that I use as well. -

Yes there is a salt shortage so we have to plow more so we use less salt. I suggest using limestone screenings to provide grip for the trucks. Works well for our laneway and driveway. May be cheaper than salt as you don't have to melt all the ice. Your grass may also be happier in the spring so you can use that Zero Turn to its full potential!!😂😂 -

Looks awesome!!👍👍 I need to get out of this snow plowing bullshit! I have no life this year!!..lol.. Calling @Blackstar @Yukon 😉 Another 14+ hours in a front end loader. Plowing was only supposed to cover the cost of my toys and provide a little beer money but not be a full time job!!😂😂 Been out almost daily/nightly for I don't remember how long. Pulled the sled out of the trailer for the first time this season. Going to do trail work tmo so had to make sure it started and moved 😂 I haven't been able to help due to plowing. Working on a trail that we haven't been on yet since the March Ice Storm. Should be fun! Hopefully we get snow and cold again soon so I can actually get out and ride our trails that we have cleaning up since May! (March Ice Storm) Our club has over 1300 man hours in so far. We were almost there to open some of them! Pic is from a previous outing in Dec.
