Plowing my driveway with an ATV - Point-of-view 

This is only my 4th video to reach 100,000 views, and it did it faster than any of my other videos that reached that milestone. Thanks everyone. I got a new plow this year for my Polaris 1000 XP. Can"t wait to post a video of that.

The timing for this video to appear in my recommendations is impeccable. It snowed last night.

Every vehicle I have has a battery tender on it... Never a dead battery anymore! My car battery is going on 9 years and has the original battery cranking! I live in Northern half of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. I have battery tenders on my gas generator; riding lawnmowers; jet skis batteries; boat battery; summertime convertible; motorcycle; and a Benz parked in the winter. Park them: connect the battery; walk away, they'll start when the time comes!

Beautiful land. I've learned to push my snow farther than expected because towards the end of winter I tend to run out of room

Nice! I love snow. Here in Athens Greece we have snow every 4-5 years,so,I appreciate it. Take care.☺💟👍

I don’t know what you do for a living Marty but you are definitely doing it right brother. Be safe. Matt - Maryland USA

👍⛄⛄⛄⛄💦 it looks like life is treating you good Marty nice place you got there James Kansas City Missouri

Of the many things I loved about Alberta, was that dry fluffy snow. At UofC was gob-smacked (used to sloppy Montreal winters) watching the snow being brushed off the sidewalks and roads on campus. But that piercing cold...... rushing from building to building to try to evade it.

Very relaxing.

I love it bud, looks like fun. 😋

Beautiful view

Very satisfying to watch...won't be long...winter 2018-2019 is on it's way!

Done the same since since about 1990. In 2020 I upgraded to a UTV with heater, extra lights, and home made wing on one side.. Pushes twice the snow much faster. Did buy a new atv at the same point and it's set up to plow as well, but use it more for pushing wind rows of pine needles in the summer.

I bet this is so much fun

Here in Buffalo we do got a lot of snow. However the last few years we’ve been getting a few warmer days. We’re known for the famous Blizzard of 77 and the most recent Snowvember in 2014 where I got 7-8 feet at my house. Great video. Can’t wait for the snow

Beautiful area

That ATV does the job against some deep snow. Snow plowing videos are always popular and thus a lot of views. Stay safe and give us more!

Beautiful country.

Nice home and land. U seem ur having fun.

What a place you have:)

You're so blessed brother! Id like to have a shop like that to hang out in. Beautiful area. The Lord has blessed us too. Just to say we haven't lost our home to raise our 3 kids in is a big statement in itself. I'm still hopeful ill make it big one day with this banjo and have that dream shop. Ha! On a final note, I was glad to see a Chevy in the driveway after watching your ford not start again. Ha! This joke doesnt go over very good in my area because ford trucks are built about 30 min away from me. I also have taken note how many ford employees drive chevys to work. Lol!

Beautiful country was in Edmonton Alberta 9 years ago pretty country indeed as a Northern US guy.

Haha, you did a great snow job Man! I just put a 52" plow on one of my quads, eagerly waiting for the first real snow. I fab the plow using scraps of my bone yards. I used to plow snow with a 5ton digger, too slow.

Mr. MartyUpNorth seems alright. That's what snow plow looks like. Cubes of snow per minute seems like the main concept of energy vs engineering. Hope I am able to fit my All Terrain snow plow onto my truck. Thinking about using a electric thread to lift & set the blade height.

Awsome video man!!

Probably because you have the same exact 4 wheeler as I do and I want to put a plow on it. Even looks like a Massachusetts plate lol

All the snow

I just bought a U-Force 1000 with a plot. Stoked. LFG.

Tracks and a flex plow blade is the way to go if using a quad. Pile high and leave edges smooth so wind blows straight across and doesn’t dump more in the driveway.

Hell of a setup you've got there! Looks like a set of tire chains would probably help a fair bit... not only for pushing, but steering as well. Or, if you want to cut your time down a nice 30-40hp tractor with heated cab and front mounted snowblower would be the hot ticket! ; )

That looks like a lot of fun.

Always try to push it out to the other side of your entrance so the plow truck doesn't push it all right back in.

snowmobile heaven

7:16, hey there's a rock there

You can cut your time down by re-angling the plow at the end of each run and plowing on the way back. This way you’re plowing on every pass. I can’t tell what setup you have but I have a 2013 Kawasaki Brute Force 750 4x4i EPS with a Warn 60” tapered plow on a front mount. The tapered plow really throws the snow when angled properly.

Definitely would set up one of the trucks with a plow or get myself a toolcat with a plow attachment for a job that big far to many pushes and clean up for a driveway that size

Nice dog

Nice dogs

I think it would be a great idea for you to put some 6in extensions on that plow

Looks fun

Nice!!! Poor old quad is still paying for It's keep. Beautiful spot you have there, is that in Canada? looks like hoar frost on the trees?

Couldn't tell if that's a gravel or paved driveway but if its a paved you can take the footers off and you'll plow it down to pavement. Had a long driveway that was paved, only took 4 passes to have it cleared! Two one way two coming back

Looks fun if you ever need help call me I'll come over to run the quad. 😆

Need a battery tender bud just bought one this year nice one for under $50. Much better than $120 for a new battery every year.nice vid👍

I have a 400 ft ash fault driveway I had a can am quad we had 13in first year we lived there 3 times in 2014. I couldn't barely get it done. I sold the quad bought a 95 k2500 Silverado with 120000 miles on it. Never had the problem again. It's just easier. Or put a plow on one of your trucks we seen on video there will be a time you wont be able to push snow but with a truck you'll be able to do anything maybe not 48in though.

Really should of let her warm up for at least 3 to 5 mins

NOOO WAYYY DUDE. im watching this on November 16 2018 bc i have no school bc of snow. Hahahahhaa

It would be great if you put up a video of you doing it completely. i’d definitely watch it !

Nice garage shop. So how is it plowing with an ATV? Looks like fun, but maybe a bit cold. Looks like you have a pretty nice place. I would love living out in the country too. Instead, I live in the city, but it's kind of like living in the country, very scenic, lots of trees, park like setting. We even have deer and turkeys that travel along our property.

You have a very nice house.

Haha I thought that was an Alberta plate on your quad. I was out on mine pushing snow today. I always have fun. Where you from?

My grizzly 700 with mud lite xls is a plow beast

With that much road/property you need a skid-steer. 👍👍

That is a nice elk rack in the wheel barrow

Do you Farm for work? Just curious what ppl do for work where you are. The land and houses are beyond amazing

I wish we'd get snow like that. Instead, we get that with about an inch of ice on top :(

My house was just off 12 mile coulee. Not far from you it looks like.

time for a liftmaster door opener

This was back in November. Wow. Today is July 27, and the days are already getting noticeably shorter. Won't be long before I have to do this again. Now I have a new ATV (1000 XP) and a 66" plow.

Nice elk rack in the wheel barrow. What is that? 6x6?

Big driveway

Excellent...if it ever snows in Los Angeles AND I get my hands on an ATV with a plow...I'll know what to do!

Looks great, I don't reckon my 250 could push that, plus I live in Georgia so it wouldn't be to useful

Looks like beautiful country we're u like. I was going to ask why don't u park truck in garage too, and why don't u have plow on truck to make short work and warmth for your self. Good video👍🏻

A bigger blade would work great, I've got a 60 inch blade on my 500 arctic. Pushes it away from tire path

I'm kind of perplexed by the fact that this video has been watched over 7,000 times. In my opinion many of my other videos are much better. What makes this one so popular???

I think that fun but cold.

What, no showshoes on the way to the shed? A missed opportunity.

Subscribed. Love to support other calgarians

Do you need a battery for your 4-wheeler

1,000th like 👌

Looks fun and all but I’d suggest selling the quad and buying a plow for your truck .. get ur driveway done quicker while in a warm cab, and u can do other driveways and make some extra money

What are the dimensions of the building that you store your atv in? I would like to build one some day and that looks like the perfect size.

I have that exsame battery charger too

That driveway is way too big man get yourself a plow on that truck

Seing the size of your driveway you should invest In a couple hundred dollar beater truck and a used 8ft plow it would be a lot faster easier and warmer might not be as much fun as the quad though

Your ADD was killing me. Start in front of the garage, move to the driveway, switch to the side driveway, back to the driveway, down the road.

Which device are you recording on? I can't wait to get a plow on my wheeler.

Stay in track with your snow plow . Less clean up and mess .

I got a 2004 polaris sportsman 700 twin. Yours goes in reverse faster than mine though. Mine starts to stutter and acts wired.

Where are u from? Or does anyone know it? Love this area!

All that fancy house and property and you don't have a powered garage door opener?

I'm just curious where he lives because he has a license plate on the four-wheeler. Is it getting to the point to where you have to have a license plate on every piece of equipment.

Thats a nice ass house and shop, what size is that shop? 30x30?

👍👍👍👋👋 Italy

I still learning englishi.did you said in the video that you live in calgary?

This video may be 2 years old but, you need to take off that winch motor and clean it out. Then re-grease it. Also, clean the electrical motor. I had that same nasty noise and just cleaned it. Sounds new again. Idk what causes that noise but, doesn’t sound good.

No joke I thought your title said something completely different

I have to ask the question.......why aren't the trucks in the garage? Lol

I live in Calgary, alberta is the most beautiful province in Canada by far in my opinion!

Looks like you need a new battery or at least charge it

Glad that wasn't a wet snow. You would have been up shit creek. Sounded like it was working hard to push a couple inches after a couple of passes.

If I was you I would try to make a knew pattern so that you don't have to drive through the snow you haven't plowed yet because if it snows more than 1and a half foot you will get stuck

That’s look like Calgary

I used to us a plow just like that than i got a real plow and a drive way like that would be 15 minutes in a nice warm truck

As the temperature hits 95 south of Chicago, I'm putting my new plow on my Can Am Commander. I plowed many years with an ATV and found a few bags of sand or salt gave me the traction to blow through any product from piled up snow. Problem is that it's harder than hell to steer if you don't have power steering. Enter...my Can Am Commander....with power steering. I bought a power tilter (Koplin) and hopefully things will get easier. I've been in your shoes though. Brrrr If you want to get rid of your dogs I'll take them! Good luck

Why does everyone stand up when they plow?? I don't get it 😂

Where are the kids? Shouldnt they be doing this or are you scared a bigfoot might have them for breakfast? What do they do for pocket money?

Is that an Etchells in your garage?

ventrac with snowblower, look one up!!!
