    Will, you would have loved to see the snow blowers the town operates. Cat 966ms with an additional diesel motor on the back just to power the blower! We also use the 966ms just to push it around. The first week the snow let up for us, we brought in crews of dump trucks/haul trucks, filled them up and took the snow out of town! Would love to see/meet you back up here! Long time fan, so happy you got to taste what I got to grow up with!

      Engine blower on the back of a loader is outdated and in the way when in tight areas.

    Mammoth Mountain already had 441 inches at its summit by mid-January. At a certain point, even the snow blowers can't eject the snow over the bank. The animals will definitely have a long hibernation this spring.

    If you think thise drifts are tall, you should see the Wilderness Road through the Scandinavian Mountains in northern Sweden. This road is closed all winter. They clear it with big loaders with blowers attached, just like 11:46 but way bigger.. This road is closed all winter. Clearing is done by April and the road is only open for like five months until the snow comes back. The snow blowing creates drifts 18 feet tall.

      This looks like private contact for the housing development. My brother in law has a home next to ski area in Washington State. The State plows the Freeway and off ramps, the county crews do the side street into my in-laws housing just like this video. Then a guy in the area uses a CAT (416) Backhoe to clear the cul-de-sac. my in-laws he just got a (Honda) powered snow blower. Small unit with tracks for his driveway. I just went up there with my 2021 Silverado 3500
      Z-71 Duramax Allison. The snow was up to the frame of pickup going into the housing development. Had NOT been plowed yet, in
      4 × 4 Low I was able to crawl through it to his house. Had to deliver a load of Fire wood. Plus most "important" his MOTHER. My nagging mother-in-law could not stop telling me how to drive through the snow. Then when we got to her son's home. She said how well I drove through it. Meaning how well she back seat drove.

      I hate the "back in the day" phrase all together. It sounds so unprofessional and it is vague. He could have said when he was a kid, or a decade ago, or even just years ago. To say "in the past" would sound better. I do agree with the sentiment that weather tends to cycle. I live an hour East of LA and 5 hours below Mammoth and have vacationed at the lakes in the Sierras quite a few times. It was interesting to see that amount of snow since I always go between the end of May and October for the better weather and fishing.
