Trucking out the snow …Last winter storm prep??? 

Discovery Channel should hire you for narration...you have the voice for it. Much like Mike Rowe.

Good job with your snow maintenance. Beyond anything I could ever imagine. Thanks for taking the time and effort in video capture and sharing with us.

Thanks for sharing these videos!! Stay safe doggy! And you

A garden hose connected to the hot water at your washing machine, works great for de-icing the driveway. Just hose it down a couple times during the hottest part of the day.

13:12 3-5" must feel like a dusting now.

I sent my business partner one of your videos and one from Mammoth Mountain Life and he's shocked at how much y'all have

Great job!

As for 1:15...Dog's hearing is way more acute than ours. I imagine all that shrill, grinding sound could drive a dog nuts.

Incredible! Thanks for sharing this!

The good folks who live in your area, do NOT require a gym! Everyone there must be in Olympic fitness. Can't imagine dealing with the snowfall you get - just too much. My, my, my.

I just mowed the front and half the backyard. I did wear long pants as it is cold for Florida.

Documenting all this is valuable as the time will come when no one would believe all you have been thru. So much snow and set hard too - exhausting work, not to mention - where the heck to try and put it all. Long way to go yet - hope you won't get much more.

Living in SoCal (Los Angeles) and watching these videos makes you ask yourself…would you rather have too much snow blocking your streets, sidewalks, and driveways? Or thousands of homeless Pychos and drug attics. I’ll take the snow…it eventually goes away on it’s own👌🤣

Be careful if you do invest in a metal roof. We had one and the snow would just shoot off once it hit like 6 inches. Anything under it it would destroy. So it's just a thought to keep in mind.

The snow load on those other houses is scary.

Great job getting the snow off the roof. It would still be fun to stand in front of a large pile of snow with a heat gun. Watch the snow melt then. Best wishes on the upcoming storm!!

Total awe the pictures the amount of snow I live in the northeast we've I'm my 56yrs have had snowy winters the mts get some decent snowfall but this I've never seen anything like this pictures from northern Japan some of the areas in that part of the world but this this is a once in a lifetime winter event maybe my grandchildren will see this happen basically anywhere on earth during a winter season this winter will be talked about it will be taught in universities it is truly historic I guess congratulations espically if your into weather and SNOW

The town snow pit is probably nuts now! It's the biggest money making scam I've ever heard of. You would think it would be cheap due to it being a safety issue. But no far from free...

wow the branches looked much smaller when you were cutting from the tree but when you dragged it down and over the balcony they were quite large!!

Thanks for the series. Gotta wonder (sorry if I missed it) what's been happening as far a trash pickup, frozen water mains, propane/ng deliveries... You know, the basics?

Battery operated chain saws are so handy. My husband uses one during fire season for small jobs, won’t throw sparks like a gas powered one. We are in Oregon.

Now is the time to trim branches or cut down any trees that you mentioned a few weeks back. They won't have far to fall and will be pretty ready to cut up once the snow melts

I read all the replies up to this point AFTER watching this video. Your videos are documenting this Mammoth winter; it appears as though, everyone in town will have something to be proud of in the way y'all are dealing with this winter. Keep us updated on any plans to have a metal roof installed over your bunker. Sometime in the near future it might be a good idea to buy a good supply of Permethrin, to deal with mosquitos this spring/summer. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

Very serious situation, depends how and when it melts, Really beyond imagination and very serious, almost evacuation area.

Thanks for the videos brother. With a branch that size u should do a bottom notch cut first. Prevent it from snapping like that and possibly smacking u or knocking u over. It’s way worth the little bit of extra time. Your on the home stretch!! Now to see what all this melting snow does …..

with less than 48 hours till spring begins our stalwart adventure must survive the sierra winter...

Thanks for showing us what the latest is. I hope this next storm will be a small one. That will give you guys a break. And it will give me a break from getting my backyard flooded again. I’m tired of pushing the water from my backyard to my front yard 🤦🏽‍♀️

Wow, you are making progress. Was shocked to see how high you were on that snowbank. Your street is looking so much better. Spring is coming. Love your dog 🐕 Rin. Be careful. Fingers crossed. LOL. Thanks

I'm thinking you don't want to deal with any more snow for this winter! Great job removing the heavy coating of Sierra cement! Thanks for the video!

All us subscribers should gather some funds together, and get you some decent saws all blades 🙂

15:05 We're getting lake effect squalls off Lake Huron as I watch this at noon on the 19th. I'd say at least 3" - 5". It may be a late Spring in southwestern Ontario, Canada, but we can deal, eh. 🤣🤣😝

Don't put rock salt directly on your roof. Fill some black nylon stockings with rock salt, tie off the ends, then lay them on the ice dam perpendicular to the edge of the roof. The heat of the sun will warm them up and they will sink into the ice dam. Move them every few days and the dam will be gone soon.

A little tip, when cutting thick branches like these, make a cut underneath about 1 third and the rest from above, that way you have less chance of tearing and nipping your blade stuck in the branches.. And great to see the street getting wider! I always fear such big machines, don't know why because I litteraly am a daredevil but those machines? Brrr 😶 😁 I pray that all goes well with the time coming up and melting it all...... ai ai ai.. I hope you do not have any leakes on your roof anywhere now? Or have had? EDIT, another idea I saw somewhere else.. would a Saw not help with removing iced up snow? Cut some cubicles and throw them aside with a shovel? Just some ideas, hope you don't mind.. wished I could help you myself but from the other side of the Pond that litteraly doesn't help you or anyone out where you all are... sorry.. (Did not seen all your video's, I am trying to catch up with it though! Edit2, lol! But I would be drunk as .... with the words you have given now! 😁 EDIT 3, Wow! Can I say that you are becoming very creative with cinematography? The Go-pro clamped to the shovel, the timelaps and the coolest one, the skidsteer in slow motion! 😎👌

Take care . Don't know what to say . You have done a good job .

Would love updates year round from repairs to the “normal” views. Great idea posting all this content! I do wonder, are there already flooding issues and washouts when the sun is out and temp rises a bit?

Long gone are the times when plowing and even snow blowing will move this huge snow dumps from the roads, streets, and parking lots. It all has to be trucked away because it can't be piled any higher? Hopefully, there will not be any more huge snow dumps this spring? This is great for Mammoth Mountain and Mammoth Lake tourism. The area has to catch up clearing snow for tourists to come up to park in the area. Who pays to snow blow into these huge dump trucks in the Mammoth Lakes area on the city streets, country roads and the highway 203? Now, I can see where the tax money goes to keep this area somewhat clear of snow and traffic moving. It is very good for vacationers and tourist dollars to come up into the Mammoth Lakes economy this year. This extremely heavy snow winter should bring many visitors to the Mammoth Lakes area in the spring and into the summer this year. I regret this extremely heavy snow because it delays hiking and backpacking well into the summer maybe into the fall in 2023.

Great vid, I have never seen dump trucks with so little capacity used for snow removal, 25 cubic yards minimum, 5 feet and sends the little truck away half full. Do they charge by volume or trips? At $7 a gallon and time spent someone is getting rich, and production is half what it could be. That roof ice dam could be costly, cheaper for a melting cable than a new steel roof.

heard for a long range forecast they're saying at least another 5 weeks of storms

Canadian here…we got nothin’ on this. It truly is crazy! Icicles like that are indicative of heat loss..check the insulation in your attic.

Praying for all of you. How is it getting food and fuel in? Any shortages?🙏🏼☀️

I’ve been thinking about getting a battery saw, good to see how they work. Amazing watching what you’re going through.

If you going metal roof, then think about adding a few steel girders at the same time. Not sure if they do that as part of the new roof, but I’d make sure to get them and corner beams to carry the load to foundation.

Can only imagine what your snow removal bills are this season 😮😮😮$$$$.ouch

Diablo Demo blade is my favorite

Yippie, light at the end of the tunnel!!! Hope the next round was nothing 🙏 looking forward to those spring and summer videos of damage ( I hope is minor 🙏) Thanks for the updates 🤗

Just wow , No mowing the yard till August . Lol

I live in Ohio on the second floor. One year I had thick ice on my deck and stairs. I took my tea kettle and boiled lots of water and poured over the stairs thus loosed up the ice to the point I could scrap it off. Only way I knew of to safely get the ice off.

Could you run some type of space heater (like a Little Buddy Heater) to melt or loosen up the ice by your garage? You could do it in sections and watch it work while having a cup of hot chocolate. This could save your back and the need to use rock salt.

Use snow shoes walking, could easily slip into cravas areas near structures, acutally extremly dangerous situation.

Those definitely looked like huge pine branches. I wonder how many calories you burn doing your chores!

13:15 that's normal in eastern Nebraska, where I live. and a foot or greater is a winter storm in the mountains.

Further acquired knowledge from viewing means I now know that Rock & Dirt is a different company from Plow Brothers. 😁 No biggy, as long as everybody gets along, eh. 🤣🤣 Sending pats for Rin. 😸

Wonder what they did in the old days. Hatches on the roof and snow shoes ?

I am not going to pile on your tree limb skills other than get a prunning blade, they work so much better but youu have to work with what you have at the time. I feel the worst is still to come when the melt happens. Good Luck. Like he videos

Guy from MN says: What is this word "melt" that you speak of? It's 18° here right now.

Do any businesses or homes in Mammoth have a metal roof? I wouldn't be surprised if a Metal Roof Contractor or two, set up business in Mammoth & have more business than they can handle.

When the skid steer with the snow blower comes, is that a service you have to pay for or a service provided to the local residents at no charge?

Could you Please do a video in the summer time. I/We would like to see how it looks without any snow ?....(No house numbers or street names)

Wondering. What do you pay for the skid stear to clean your driveway? Thanks for sharing.. Keep Up The Good Work

I always wondered why they didn't have machines to melt snow rather than move it? Especially if you have a warmer day. Why not melt some?

Use Air Guns for the roof tops. Knock that snow down !

Put ice melt in pantyhose then lay the tubes on the ice dams, they’ll melt and make channels.

Where's to go?!!!?? Stay safe!

Always bigger on the ground!!

i bet people could dig out a hollow the size of a living room in those drifts

How do you keep the water out of your house when it melts?

So where do they truck the snow?

I strongly suggest you take o2 next time you scale that Everest replica in the front yard

I hope the worse is over too!

Have you heard of flame thrower?

👍👍👍👍

Has your neighbours house had any damage to it

Here's the funny part: All of this snow removal equipment will be illegal in California in a few more years Thanks for the great videos!

I think you're not going to see your grass until September

moving frozen water with semi trailers is in no way sustainable...They close the Tioga Road in Yosemite for the Winter. Between the avalanche risk and a gargantuan amount of snow there's no way to keep that road open. Obviously the ski industry dominates the local economy in Tahoe and Mammoth. Keeping Sierra mountains clear of snow is both a herculean task and an energy intensive operation. It may become a point where it just doesn't make economic sense to keep the road to Sidewinder open in the WInter. See The Shining

Why not just burn the tree?

new blade time?
