Thats the bracket I meant. Could be something else, like a broken/stretched cable. YouTube, you can do it.

Edit: I can't read. If both aren't spinning, it's likely a belt or the lever isn't engaging it (I have seen this happen where the bracket snaps). Belt swap is definitely not as difficult as you think.

Today I learned that a large amount of snow packs down the snow at the bottom and snowblower effectiveness approaches zero because it bottoms out on the packed shit and wheels won't grip. Clearing it was awful and I only did a 'good enough' job. There is an assload of snow tho. Unreal.

today was fuckin batshit. i don't know how to explain it but it's as if they were both #1 days for me for different reasons. yesterday was sort of just enjoying powder for the first time and today was kind of no holds barred crazy. between having bumps everywhere mixed in with some untracked, getting lost in the woods, the mountains on falls, tbar line, seeing people skiing literally everything, it was just bonkers.

n-o-n-o-n-o-no

today was bananas b a n a n a s

its slightly uphill on the way towards the house where it's stuck. gravity helped me on the way out i guess, plus there was likely less snow.

truck bumper became a snowplow on my way in. had to hike it to the house. there is sooo much snow

6er still opening at noon. What the fuck

It is still fuckin dumping here. I have no idea what we've got because of the drifting. Hoping my driveway is less than a foot and a half otherwise imma be late. Cable/phone/internet has been out since 5pm. Kind of sucks because I have a shit ton to do.

Things I learned on my first pow day: Get on the road early and clean your windshield. Trudging through high snow to the lift is not fun. Doing a 50 yard dash in ski boots is much less fun than that. Skis a lot slower than I expected. Skis much different than groomers. Disregard skipo. Shit bumps up quick. I think that's it.

He started screaming something like 'seizing passes' and started radioing people so I stopped and just played dumb. I've never poached anything and was terrified to lose my pass. I don't know how strict they really are or if it isn't a remote possibility and didn't want to chance it. Looking back, prob should have just went.

thanks for sharing that

just call the office whenever you normally start and say the internet or power is out.

sorry, this was supposed to read 534 was not great but much better than in the AM.

i got back maybe 15 min ago. 534 was not great but much better in the AM. kept it at about 45mph in 4wd as opposed to the 30mph in the AM. i highly recommend taking dan's route there, i took that way back. it was snowy, but straight, so not very bad. in AM, 209 and spruce hollow were bad. could have changed since then but i doubt it.

Roads are horrendous

guess i'm starting the driveway now shit

damn how early should i be leaving?????

usually i'm nice enough to give neighbors the until 8am before i start the outdoor power eqpmnt. not happening today, as soon as there's enough light i'm starting. haven't heard a plow in the last 1.5hrs, concerning.

took first run on NMDW yesterday since the time it had been closed. i only saw one person on it, but that setup is really impressive.

good god throw it out. is it the jacket you thought you left in verbier? if so, glad you found it.

it is dumpin' i'll make it out of my drive in the AM but wew lad it's gonna be a struggle gettin to blue. lookin at the cams, gettin windy...

mt holly has just bumped my area up from 18-24 (at 3am) to 24-30 (5pm).
