This past weekend we here in sc WI got hit with our 1st significant snowfall and now well below normal temps. Over Fri night and thru Sat we got 9" of heavy wet snow and now it is all freezing up.
The last time this happened we had an ice base all thru the winter  .
What this means at the cabin (45 min away) is that the snowplow threw a good berm across the driveway that has now hardened up not so nicely.
Then once we get some days back above freezing (we're expecting single digits the next few overnights) I will have to have my wife drop me off at the driveway and I'll trudge in afoot some 350' while she goes down the road to a plowed area to park. I'll hopefully be able to get the JD 1025R started and run the rear blade and FEL to clear the drive and a turn-around so we can at least get in off the narrow county road out front (NO shoulder to park on there). IF I can get it plowed down to the gravel we can get some melt off to clear (solar to the rescue!) it for getting in/out.
If not, we are done until 'sometime' several months out'.
