Buddy you and those Cubs "Got Er Done"

Been watching the news and I think your area hit the jack pot as far as accumulation goes.

Great pics.

Yes sir, they earned their keep this week!

I was impressed I was able to plow up my hill with 20+ of snowdrift across it with no problem. Once I got that first pass opened up, it was smooth sailing.

Cory,

Great job on the deep snow with your cubs! Did you ever feel that you were running out of power or traction? I can't envision what you do with the first cut of 20 - 30" snow!

Thanks for the pics!

I gotta to know one thing, where do you even start with that kind of snow? How do you get the first pass, are you riding on top somewhat? And where do you put it?
I'll tell you, that snow would put NC in the darkages for a year!!

Going uphill for the first pass is a B---H once you get a hole punched through your home free. Well done Cory. I for one know just how much work is involved.

Have a question for you, the Weather Channel has been calling this storm Nemo and your calling it Charlotte any ideas?

Thanks John! The first pass takes a long time. Its like u go 3 feet back up, then go another 3 feet and you are spinning the whole time. I had each chain pop off at one point or another. Was nuts, the most snow I have seen at once to date I think.

That is the million dollar question... Where do you put it. Thats the hardest part, its tough when everything is covered in 3 feet of it. I was able to punch a hole in our yard, right now most of the driveway's snow is sitting where our back yard is. haha. The first pass is crucial, once you break through it really is smooth sailing. I feel beat, I can only imagine how the Cub feels!

You got that right Sam! Holy He*l it is a Pain in the A** to get the first pass going and especially uphill. It took a good hour to punch through. I dont know about the name thing, our weather forecasters have been calling it "Blizzard Charlotte".

Eric, Thanks! It was alot of work, but I am very happy to have a Cub. I'm not so sure of too many more that would have been able to handle it! Next time you will get more!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
