I knew I forgot something. I had one more chore I needed to do before the winter snow. My gravel driveway needed a few repairs before I start running the LX2980 front mount snowblower through the winter snows. But things don;t always work out like you plan them. Tune in and let's get this done. Cheers!

It is nice to know that my property isn't the only one that grows rocks.

@marcusniessen7793 10 месяцев назад

Great reminder. I have used a sledge hammer to flake off the top of such a rock, to give me another year before dealing with it. Not a long term solution, but I don't have a gravel pile.

Stump bucket or a Tankers Bar……good luck 👍👏🇺🇸🇨🇦 Rick

Great advice

@jdc5941 10 месяцев назад

Gord, buy and an excavator or backhoe for those rocks......they are cheap. 😅😂 Well maybe not that cheap. Anyway another nicely done informative video. 😊

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL! I would love to have one. Cheers JD!

@FromSteelToWood 10 месяцев назад

You are right about those rocks. They will emerge from the surface by the repeated action of freeze and thaw. And yes, they will eventually cause a major problem on the snow blower! Thanks!

@hrmacdonald4471 10 месяцев назад

GP you will have to call Andrew Camarata to drop over to give you a hand with that rock. Love to see you both in a video :) Always enjoy your video's...stay safe!

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL! That would be great if he could drop by. :))

@olddawgdreaming5715 10 месяцев назад

Good morning Gord. Yes sir them rocks do eventually float to the top and oh what a mess they will make. It is good that you do clear the drive and find them before they have a chance to damage your equipment. You'll have your work cut out for you in the spring. Stay safe and keep up the great videos around there. Hope the seasons are a great time for you all. Fred.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Morning and thanks Fred! Yup, they can be a bit troublesome. Wish you and yours all the best too!

@davehumpf4479 10 месяцев назад

Love the videos. I tend to wait until the last minute also!

@gusswenson7811 10 месяцев назад

Good morning GP Great Tip.. All the hidden things you find under the first snow fall will get you every time.. I have snapped a few sheer bolts because of not checking before the snow flies. Hope you are enjoying retirement… Please tell Carol hello from us. Cheers

@davidedwards3734 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for explaining this!! In SE Georgia we don't get a lot of snow. But, as tge earth moves obstacles come out of the ground that can damage equipment!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

@raygobearsgo 10 месяцев назад

Good Morning GP, Great video, Iam double checking my list of to do before the snow flies, seeing as we received 4" last week. Lol Keep up the great Work. Cheers

@PEI_Guy 10 месяцев назад

Your video is inspiring me to go out and drive the marker stakes along my driveway before the ground freezes too hard.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Good stuff! and great idea - have a wonderful weekend!

@denniskemnitz3771 10 месяцев назад

If you use a bar and pick you will remember next year 😊

@RonaldDean-eq2cb 10 месяцев назад

Hi G.P. It looks like you have snow removal down to a science and a lot of experience. I really enjoy watching videos when I learn things and have a good time doing it. Thanks for the advice and tips great video looking forward to seeing you again.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Ron! Have a nice weekend!

@MyClutteredGarage 10 месяцев назад

Wow that’s a lot of maintenance that I wouldn’t have considered, Gord. Time to pave the concession road 😄

@bobpurs 10 месяцев назад

GP I have good luck digging rock with my forks also. Couples snows here also but haven’t had to plow yet. Hope your week is good and have a good weekend.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Cheers Bob!

@maintenancewithmike 10 месяцев назад

GP thanks for sharing. We have a long steep gravel driveway as well and you definitely need to get those big rocks off. I usually use the quad with a snow plow blade until the gravel is frozen I find this keeps more rocks out of the snow blower. Cheers, Mike.

@claudenormandeau9211 10 месяцев назад

Time for more Tannerite

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL! Guy wanted to blow it so bad but I wouldn't let him.::)) Cheers Claude!

@watershedoverlook 10 месяцев назад

Nice job Gord. I've got a few jobs at the Overlook I'm tardy in tackling as well!

@pddpup7767 10 месяцев назад

get all the rocks, don't leave any for seed😉

@carlhausler9666 10 месяцев назад

Isnt Ma nature fun Gordon? Amazing how colder temps just mess up the works. Good video

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

She sure is - but my fault this time. Cheers Carl!

@retiredforlife63 10 месяцев назад

The yearly rock harvest 😂. I get it every year as well. It can cause so much damage.

@GrampiesWorkshop 10 месяцев назад

How's she goin'? This is a very good tip Gord, thanks for sharing. I hit rocks like this many times and one time in particular caused me some grief. I hit the rock, well in fact it was a frozen rut, and it jarred the tractor so much I hit my head on the windshield!! LOL That smartened me up I'll tell ya! Take 'er easy!!

@warped2875 10 месяцев назад

w00t! Gord, if you continue to forget your end-of-fall-chores, you need to get yourself one of those Heavy Hitch tooth bars to break into that frozen gravel pile, and a stump bucket to help dig those boulders out! 😁 😉 One of these days, I'll endeavor to become a procrastinator, ...but I keep putting it off.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LMAO! I got a w00t!! Yup, either that I will need an assistant to remind me what I am supposed to be doing every day. :))

@jeromebecigneul2911 10 месяцев назад

I wish our ground was frozen. We have had a wet fall and now as the snow flies the temps are as low as 18F degrees up to 45F. The soil is soft on top which makes the tractor dig in. I have beet juice in rear tires and total weight of each rear tire and rim runs about 1700 lbs. Add the tractor and it's not pretty. Any dirt trail becomes a mud trail. But I like how you solve your problem. Well, have a great weekend and enjoy. Back to the deer blind.

@JelenOutDoors 10 месяцев назад

Good advice GP, those rocks can be nasty. I had graded and packed my drive as smooth as it can be at the beginning of the month. Have a good one!

@earlzathome 10 месяцев назад

Hey Gord, you might have a second chance at those rocks in the next weeks ....it's supposed to get back up above freezing for a while!

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

I am hoping so - I need to do my 400 hour service...:))

@petekleinschmidt4251 10 месяцев назад

Well it isn’t like you have had a lot going on this year Gord! Something’s slip though the cracks only so much time in a day! Looks like a good fix till next spring! Cheers!

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Pete! have a great weekend!

@kenfromvt.5136 10 месяцев назад

I use a hydraulic rake to rake the road before every winter

@danbenson5319 10 месяцев назад

Put some rock salt or other ice melt product on your gravel pile. It might loosen the gravel up enough to use and keep it from refreezing.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Dan - I had not heard of that before. Cheers!

@ronbrooks6681 10 месяцев назад

Great Informative Video Gour. I have some Pine Roots in the Woods. I am going to put some Dirt them so I do not hit it with my Ariens Self Propelled Snow Blower. I make a path for myself in the Winter so I can get to some trees if I need some Wood. Cheers to you my Friend, Stay Safe Please. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.

@rscott6512 10 месяцев назад

Good call GP, get gravel over it and call it a day. I think to extract, you, me and many others need bigger kit that can be rented or call a friend if lucky to have a friend with the right heavy equipment. Keep tractoring on and have a nice holiday season.

@jonasforsman 10 месяцев назад

Hello Gord You may try Making a fire on the stone and soften the ground up👍. We just got 3 foot of snow in two days so you know what im doing as a wheelloader driver😂 Best wishes from North of sweden

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Cheers Jonas! Have fun out there!

@TheMonkdad 10 месяцев назад

I wanted to see how big that rock was.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL!! Me too - my neighbour wanted to blow it. :))

@dwoodog 10 месяцев назад

Would have been a good job for a mini excavator. Thanks for the tips Gord.

@bradasmith 10 месяцев назад

Would another option to rip up the rock be using a box blade with ripping teeth down?

@markdumont6862 10 месяцев назад

In Maine we call those frost heaved rocks “potatoe” heads. LOL If you ever harvested potatoes you recognize the comparison.

@karlcarnevale4948 10 месяцев назад

Those rocks will help you meet your windshield pretty quick.

@sherpa972 10 месяцев назад

Hi Gord, I could not see if your loader is the same as my B2650, I use the open pipe behind the bucket to slide in the shovel/rake/tamper when I do my laneway repairs. Bucket is usually too full. I have the box blade on the back.

@pacoal 10 месяцев назад

GP could you drill holes in those protruding rocks? (in the summer) let them fill with water. Maybe they would freeze and crack in the winter.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL! Guy has an explosives kit and was dying to do that.. but I wouldn't let him. LOL! Cheers!

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

LOL! Guy has an explosives kit and was dying to do that.. but I wouldn't let him. LOL! Cheers!

@TheFirewoodHut 10 месяцев назад

Exactly what I was thinking! It would be a fun experiment to do. Also, bring out the generator & dewalt rotary hammer and jack hammer away.

@billbray8797 10 месяцев назад

GP do you think a stump bucket would be beneficial to use to remove rocks?

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

I think it would work well but my grapple works great ( when the ground isn;t frozen). But for sure I think a stump bucket with a good hard strong tip on it would be great.

@justindavis1546 10 месяцев назад

Smart move parking in such a way as to block the driveway before walking down it.

@kentuckycornbread8502 10 месяцев назад

Could you use heat to crack those rocks? Maybe a good face shield because hot rocks pop but try a torch on it or a dump a hot bed of coals on it to bust it up.

@tomrunning357 10 месяцев назад

I wonder if a root bucket would work for this.

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

I think so Tom. A good one with a strong hard tip. Cheers!

@Doctocracy 10 месяцев назад

Mark it, too.

@williamfenner9915 10 месяцев назад

Have a ripper tooth for the Kubota

@bradasmith 10 месяцев назад

Why not drive the leaves off the road with either a 0Turn or Mower deck on the tractor? It would work better and much faster? I use my 0turn to push the leaves to the edge of the property or push them in a circle (ever smaller) until in a pile and keep circling the leaves around and after a few minutes you can barely see them (pulverized)

@alittleofthisandalittleofthat 10 месяцев назад

Buy some of that stuff from that splits rocks. Drill a few holes, pour it in and come back in a couple days. Watched a video Paul Short ( Specialty repairs) from NFLD years ago split up a big rock.

@badgerlandturf 10 месяцев назад

So given your explanation of the driveway and why you don’t dig with the bucket, could you have used your grapple in the gravel pile to break it up frozen? It stinks when we let our chores run past, but you were probably playing around with the chainsaws and your buddies. Maybe they could have come to your rescue 😅. Cheers

@nickf5204 10 месяцев назад

GP, a reasonable cheap attachment that might be a better option for rocks would be a narrow stump bucket. Apply more force to a narrow area might help w those rocks being removed.

@johnotten960 10 месяцев назад

great video wondering if you had the back hoe attachment that would dig these stones out

@frank9649 10 месяцев назад

Some of them leaves and a bag of charcoal.....light it up and come back in the afternoon , easy digging ! be well.

@Gwalker0220 10 месяцев назад

Jp yor friend from Alaska. I did a long driveway here at my place... So a great idea for you.... Hit it with a dozer, and pick off the big rocks... Then run three quarter minus over the driveway about eight inches deep... It will pack down and be smooth as a baby's butt... Hope your all doing great.. Say hi to the guy, with no name next door...

@GPOutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Morning G! Thanks - it may be an idea I may have to do. I try to do a little bit every year or two but that may help alot. Thanks - I will say hi - stay warm!

@kubota33 10 месяцев назад

Its magic rocks come from no where

@danelionheart5881 10 месяцев назад

Gord you left out the part that if you happen to be drinking a hot cup of coffee when you hit that rock you will wear all that coffee .

@perryhynes837 10 месяцев назад

backhoe attachment would have been better

@larrykluckoutdoors8227 10 месяцев назад

Yup, too late to do it right

@jh9855 10 месяцев назад

GP thanks for your video. I'll lend you my lab, Abby, who is quite the digger. She will soften any frozen ground in a matter of minutes. Payment for her services is a quarter of a banana, pop corn, or a doggie cookie.
