I admire your fortitude with enduring such winters. I had a small flashback to winters in Buffalo last week when our pipes froze and that was more than enough for me.
When i lived i Northern MN we had a 600' driveway. So we had a very old Alice Chalmers garden tractor with a 42" snowblower. It was only 10hp, but a huge cast iron transfer case and transmission. 4 speed but low and high gears. It's often too cold here for snow so most of our bigger storms are in the fall and spring. Below zero, not much snow. So I got to the point of preferring really cold 😆
Wonderful writing. Thanks for so eloquently sharing the snow life in the Sierra!

Frozen and broken plumbing is always a disaster. My condolences, Ed.
Thanks. But not to worry, the luck of the Irish prevailed.
