Looks like the first pass was done with a snow blower.

That one looks like it was made with a snow blower but usually when you get to the end of your first pass, you just back up and make yourself an area to turn around. That, or gun it till you make it!

I like the idea of POTM over POTW. I remember when I was doing POTW it was a PITA to get material to post. Well done Ryan.
It hasn't gotten any better Sam!!

POTM is a better idea of POTW.

Love those pics. Great size and taken well. Looking at the amount of grass that's been cut and the amount of snow being bladed I can see that it's still earning it's keep (like they should be.)

Nice job!

The 149 appears well maintained. Plowing all that snow and no wheel weights? Must be a dry snow. Plowing snow is lots of fun. Wish we had some snow.

Thumbs up
A nice 149 still earning it's keep! I'd say we're a little late on pushing the snow, as I'd have been on that much sooner, Ha! Two straight-blade passes down the middle, then a few angle side to side passes, and that drive would have been cleared - no problem with an IH Cub Cadet 149!

Thanks for all the great comments. Yes for those who were wondering the first pass was cut by a 24 inch Cub Cadet two stage walk behind snow blower. That snowfall was close to 18 inches. The 149 did the rest of the work, we have a lot of luck with no wheel weights not sure why but my son knows his machine very well so I leave that up to him. Here is an update we tore the 149 down and gave the 14 horse a much needed total rebuild, it is now back together and fitted with a QA-36 blower sitting ready for some more snow duty. We snag a set of wheel weights and refinished them. They are now on the 149 and look great. All of our family is very devoted to using Cub Cadet.

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.
