No appreciable snow has fallen yet, here. It will though. Common in the winter to get huge dumps, 24-36” in 24 hours.

I can’t count how many times I went through the motions digging out sets, only to know that they would be pretty much worthless in about 6 hours.

Maybe you will find the joy in digging 6 plus feet and standing on your head to fetch a set.
Snow is dumb……

Already have about 3' on my lines, more falling now. It warmed up real good, single digits for daytime highs the last week or so, 27 and dumping snow now. Getting ready to walk out the door to go keep trails busted open and check some sets and put out some new ones.

Got an inch here a few days ago but it's all gone now thankfully. Also got 3+ inches of MUCH needed rain.

Seems to be hit or miss this year. What part of the state are you in?
