Snow is still pounding in Lake Tahoe. We just received 2+ feet and we have another 4-6 feet coming the next 3 days. The setup is a CAT 938G with a 12 foot Balderson Blade as well as a Kodiak Northwest LMSC3640 2 stage blower. Stay tuned for more videos! Thank you guys for 1k Subscribers!

It’s really something when snow banks make a big piece of machinery like this look small. Just incredible.

I’m thinking this snow melt will help fill those California reservoirs. The people and the equipment and their ability to maneuver in mountain roads or even residential neighborhoods takes skill. Much much more than clearing 6” from Lowe’s stores here in the Midwest. Congrats to you diligent folks who keep snow off the roads!

We get a ton of snow in northern Japan, but the local town's officials don't plow. They sit back and hope enough trucks and cars push through to make paths. I guess they pocket the expense money for the blowers and plow equipment parked near city hall, because they sure to heck rarely use them.

Aah the good ole days many a day & night hours in a loader just my opinion but think you guys would beenifit with a Degalman or a HILA 12-16 ft adjustable wings to go from 12 to 18 ft wide with both wings open or box it to carry snow or open one side or the other and let it fly out either side I think now they have one that folds in the middle as well making a giant VEE PLOW not sure what size you have on there now looks like 12 or maybe 16-foot blade not sure but also these plows pivot left and right just as yours does just look on here and look up Degalman or HILA THEY ATE PRETTY COOL 👍

"They". What a dumb comment. Think harder. These machines will still get built even as most people buy EVs. It's not the same people buying these and light duty vehicles. And battery density continues to improve. I'm ten years, yes this will be electric and powered by clean energy because that will be the best, most affordable option for whoever buys and runs the machine.
@pyro323
@pyro323 Год назад
EV's are a scam. Think about for a second, Teslas have killed multiple drivers because of a software glitch, ev trucks can't tow anything and some ev's have caught fire while parked in the garage. The lithium used to make ev batteries gets mined from the earth and the mining process destroys the land. Even some charging stations require a gas or diesel generator to power the charging station. 🤔

I've had some good laughs over you crazy Californians NOT blowing, shoveling or plowing a wide enough pathway. By the end of the season, ya'll won't be able to drive your car out of your driveway, or walk out to the street because you only scraped enough snow to "clear" a path rather then scraping 1/3 more on each side to leave room for future storms. Those of us who live in the far North figured out to build "X-ways" through the snow early on.
@griffgranger
@griffgranger Год назад
There is only so much you can do when you have this much snow. We are already working around the clock, so clearing another 1/3 off off everything would be incredibly time consuming and in my opinion fairly wasteful. At this point we are just looking for access to houses
