They are likely opening roads in the spring that otherwise wouldn't melt out until June or July. Also, large rotary plows like this are essential to keep major highways (for example, Interstate 90 across Snoqualmie Pass) open during the winter. czcams.com/video/7tfmSRX-x3s/video.html
This is larue snowblower made quebec city,quebec canada.they sold around world.they sold one norman wells,nwt work at -45 to - 60 below zero clean airport job.the gov't was impress.you got kodiak made usa idahoe tough machine.not cheap buys around 3/4 millions a pop yup.i saw some 30-40 years old still running yup in quebec hwy job.😊
@@TheSiriusEnigma Actually, the T-80, with its standard ribbon reel, has 2 limitations- heavy ice buildup from months of snow compacting into layers, and rocks or wood debris from slides. Do you know the blower speed in RPMs vs. the rolling speed of the vehicle here? Do you know the number of weeks or even months that snow has laid there? We run Larues at my agency.
Amazing
More video please 👏

What's the point if it's that deep and on an unused road? Just leave it until it melts.
many times these are NOT unused roads. they are lifelines to mountain communities. Avalanches can bury a road to that point in minutes.

Anyone have an idea what that machine cost?
$850,000
Why are they going so slow? The T-80 can go faster in that snow.
Not when it's compacted snow and ice.
@@xx5zi this machines always operate with compacted snow and ice. Their only limitation is how much the can fit in the blower at once.

Computer controls the blower/travel speed so that it does not bog down and maintains optimal RPMs.
How much HP?
That machine I believe is not a hybrid so should be 755HP, with that blower head attachment should be able to remove up to 5,000 tons per hour.
