I think I like the looks of your 100.....and I also think that I like the looks of the grass it's on! I did get some Cub time yesterday when I cleared the driveway with the help of the 124. No action shots from yesterday...but here's a shot I took today. We've had enough winter already.

Today, I got my 124 stuck for the first time!!!
Decided to do some romping through the forest, through the snow.

Note to self: Before offroading cub, remove tiller front mule.

Went down the hill (45deg, 5' high) that ends at the small crick.....half way through the crick, tractor stopped. So, I figured give it a go, get the front wheels up on the bank.
Rears instantly spun, dug the back in deeper in seconds.

The rear diff is sitting on a rock, the rear wheels not touching......water is now up to the foot rests.

Darn mule drive was smack against a rock, under water...couldn't see it.

After 1/2 hour, with my son helping, I gave up.

I'll snap a photo of this hysterical debauchery tomorrow when I go to yank it out with the winch.

My 11 year old was laughing, and cracking wise comments.

I didn't even think about it.....dumb.

Mine was, I do it all the time in warmer weather.
But it' not really a creek, it's the flow from the three springs bubbling up in a section of my property.

I think it was a marsh that was filled in during the farming days (1650-1890's) here. Because the silt is only a few inches (6-12" in some places), and there's field stones under the silt...so going through it with a loaded trailer is never an issue without snow....the snow covered the larger rocks that I would have navigated around.

I need to go through it to access the areas I cut timber in.

Today I picked up a couple headlights and a switch for my Cub from TSC and got the holes cut in the headlight panel. The closest holesaw I could find was 3 7/8" so I'll have to enlarge the holes a little with a die grinder till the bulbs fit. I need to make the retainers yet to hold the bulbs in the panel. I was able to get the dimensions for the retainers from a guy at work. I'll post some pics when I get them done.

We finally got enough snow that I could fire up my 782 with the converted 451 snow blower. Cleared the few inches we got away from the driveway and it seemed to work quite well. It doesn't have the distance of my Ariens 22" walk behind, but it cleared the main driveway in 4 passes instead of the 8 needed for the walk behind. I'm waiting for some real accumulation before I judge it any more.

Now I'm wishing I had a longer driveway, though I'm sure I will no longer feel that way by March.
