30" of snow in one day here in beautiful North Haven CT. Freaking back breaker at work. Damn Honda snowblower crapped out and had to shovel by hand.:mad: Stupid drive belt let go and you have to take the whole front of the auger apart to get it off. And of course the Honda dealer was closed because of the storm.

18" here. Get out the snowshoes.:wink:
 
Ya, my wrist is not happy today. One of these days I have to have carpals tunnel surgury.
 
Wow I am 50 and it makes me feel like an OLD man after 2 hours of being shaken by the snowblower.:eek:

54 and feel like I am dead after SHOVELING all day.

Work sidewalks I had to do by hand. One helper who is older than me! See that fence in the upper left pic? I have a sidewalk on the other side of it. That runs about 600 ft right next to a state road where the plows go about 40 mph passing by. Guess where all the snow goes?

Dang Mark, I guess I can't complain about having to manhandle 27" on my driveway. And I'm still "young"!

Of course, biggest snowstorm of the season, shear pin breaks and and can't find a friggin replacement anywhere. I'm sure I'll find the package sometime in June.

Had to bust out the ol' ArmStrong Snow Thrower:

Here's a couple pics from the Keewenaw Penisula this weekend.
The snow was chest deep in some areas. All off trail backwoods riding.
Even though I was on a long track mountain sled, I still managed to get stuck a few times. That's when it really gets hard, digging out a 500lb sled buried in a trench. not fun.

Heres the sled I had for the weekend, pretty sweet machine.
