P500 The snow is gettin' deep

[Deleted member 3748]

Had to go balls out to get through some of the drifts. Didn't help that my plow was on.

Better keep those balls safely tucked in, lol. How deep is your snow?

It's only about a foot deep, but I was out checking properties and the drifts were maybe 2-3 feet deep. It was fun blasting through them with a wave of snow going over the top. I won't lie... I did get stuck a few times and had to back out in my tracks.

I was doing the same thing today. Didn't get stuck though. Almost while plowing . Had to s*** can it in reverse!

The bottom of my tires haven't been this clean since they were new after running thru the snow yesterday. As you said, anything over a foot was a challenge.

Not really stuck if you can back out

Very cool. We tried riding in a foot of snow and kept getting stuck so we aborted the ride.

Point!

True. I'm a little wiser this winter and no when to let off the gas.

Yeah, we've had a couple of good ones already and it's early yet. I think the snowbelt has dipped south, the north used to get more than we did. Heard on the news that we're on the verge of setting a record in our area for most snow in Dec. Picked a good year to upgrade to the P5, now I can stack it.

Hey @Montecresto , did you post on Facebook about having your P5 and Arctic Cat sled out in the snow?

Winter can be hit or miss. I wouldn't mind seeing a miss one of these years. We've been getting blasted, even when I lived in Royal Oak.

No, not me, I don't do FB?

Just took a guess. Some dude's P5 and 1980 Arctic Cat something or other were both spinning in the snow today.

My nephew and I pushed though the snow on the final day of the gun hunting season (whitetail) and were really impressed with how much snow the lil goat could push through. It sucks to have it coated in road crud by the time it gets home though. Seing a buck would have been nice..

Oops, sorry.

Maybe that's why I couldn't re-find the post on facebook!
