- 2 weeks of warm weather and rain on the way, I need to prepare the driveway for a big melt. The Kubota LX2610 compact tractor, LX2980 front mount snowblower and RB1672 rear blade have some work to do. In this first part, I'll get the parking area done. Then we will take it further up the 1.3 km driveway through the forest on the next episode. The heat is on the way! Cheers!

I concur. Weird winter too in Gaspe Peninsula.
My LX2610 is taking it easy...
That rig does take care of business.
Morning Gord! -28 Celsius last week and now it’s 10 today. 🤷♂️
Very disappointing winter up here on Little Glamor Lake just a stones throw from your place. This is the third winter for my L3301 and I have only had to blow out the driveway three times this year and I probably only needed to do it twice in reality. Mine is set up with a front loader and blower on the three point hitch with chains all around. The loader is pretty handy for getting into those tight spots and for clearing away all of the snow that has slid off the roof in the past day or two with this rain and snow mix mild weather that we have been having. Enjoy your videos and here is hoping for more snow!
GP outstanding video arriving it should be a magazine photo. Oh get a new snow shovel. Have fun
LOL! On my shopping list. Cheers Gary!
Good morning My Friend, very strange Winter so far. Up here in New York all the Snow is gone. Last week sub-zero Temps. Then it warmed up Rained and Snow is gone. Tomorrow some Snow coming in. About 2-4inches of Heavy Wet Snow. Then going into the 40's. Cutting some Wood today stocking up. Have a good Day, Stay Safe and enjoy one another in Helping out. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY
Good day Ron. Indeed. Enjoy your time out there bucking and splitting!
Crazy weather. Two or three times we've had a blanket of snow followed by the '50s F and rain. I sure prefer the blanket of snow
Crazy weather there, Gord. I remember back to your open cab days, freezing temps all winter! At least you have a/c in the cab now! Lol. Hope the weather behaves up there! Take care!
Crazy winter for sure. Yesterday in Virginia we reached a new record of 80 degrees. And the week before we had two snow storms.
Time for a new shovel for sure! I’m sure you’re not regretting selling your snowmobile this year! We’ve really only had one weekend of good riding here in Michigan. I sold my machines a couple years ago we just don’t get the snow like we used to! Cheers!
Nice job Gord.
Nearly 80°F here yesterday...my dreams of snow continue to fade.
Wow. Now that's hot. LOL. Hope you get a nice tan Chris!
Wow! Look at all of that snow! We would be in big trouble with that here in Arkansas! lol
We had the same problem. Got 9" last week, then 3", temps were 9F degrees. This week 38 degrees, then 2 days of rain. supposed to be 42 by Monday My drive is now back to gravel no snow.
As Luc said, it has been a weird winter. We too in Southern Maine have had snow rain cold temps then warm temps back to cold. The lawns are like mush. I'll take any kind of precipitation as the aquifers need replenishing. Thank for the video.
How's she goin'? It's always a good plan to plow for the next snow. And even if it doesn't come there is less snow in your lane and landing now so it should melt away faster!! Who knows, maybe it will all melt and there won't even be any ice!! Wouldn't that be nice. Take care!!
The weather for this winter has certainly been a weird one for large parts of the USA and Canada. El Nino is certainly in full effect.
Hey Gord, I'm in Wyoming. Weird winter - that's an understatement. Next week, were going to hit 60°f or about 15.56°c middle of next week... We don't have any snow on the ground. But, we typically don't get snow until March...
Good morning, it is definitely weird weather, for sure! I did the same and cleared off some of the snow base on my driveway, but left the trails alone. And ya, you need another shovel 😂
GP you picked a good year to sell your skidoo sled. We went out 3 times this year but it’s not looking good. All the trails in Ontario are pretty much closed since the 2 days of rain. Definitely a strange winter.
I think so but I do miss it a lot. Hopefully we will start getting great winters again in the near future. Good luck though - hope we get lots for you to get out at least a few more times this season. Cheers!
I enjoy the shots from outside the cab. I know they take a lot of time to set up and edit.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks - they do but well worth it if you folks enjoy them. Cheers!
Good day GP 😇👍👌Nice Winter Road 🧐👍👍Yes New square Snow shovel would be nice 🤔🤣👍Close Views Of Your Front Blower 🥴Planing is Everything 🧐👌Be Well GP and Keep Warm and DRY 🔥😇👍Cheers 🍻
Hi, I like your setup with blade and blower...nice one two punch.
Definitely been a warm winter. Same forecast here in Upper Michigan. 40 degrees ferinheit for almost a week.
Hopefully you can get in some firewood time. Cheers Mike!
nice work
🙂lol on the dirt shovel... bet you will bring a classic snow shovel the next time you come to the cabin.
Yup _ i forgot it. :) Cheers Roger!
Aluminum Grain Scoop. Long handle or a D handle.
Thanks Gord...
Thanks for the video 👍 and go get a new shovel 😅
Good morning GP. Definitely a warm winter. We had rain and 40°F last few days. Snow is going fast. Looks like we are gonna loose it all as not seeing any snow or cold temps for next week. Did same thing, peeled off most so didn’t end up with a bunch of slush. Have a good week. 👍
Good call I think - Cheers Bob!
Beautiful outside when the snow is fresh on the trees. Looks a lot like my drive into my camp.
Beautiful drive up the path GP. Almost makes me wish we had some snow right now, though I would take snow over the gloomy fog and drizzle we have been getting here.
Cool video GP.
Good job Gord .
What a weird winter we are having. These temperatures are just wacky. Be safe my friend and take care. BTW, is the lake frozen? Cheers
You got way more snow than I had! I didn’t gain anything leaving the snow. We got so much rain! Like you, my base is pretty much gone now. I think I missed my one chance to get my snowmobile out😢.
UGH. I hope not - I'll keep my fingers crossed for you RFL!
We have a new 35 Hp Branson tractor with cab.
I put studded chains on the rear wheels but still find front wheels slide around sometimes in deep snow or icy conditions.
We plow a 2.5 km long road into our lake house.
What are your experiences/ thoughts on tire chains for front tires? Thx!
Good morning GP Winter wonderland !
Good day!
I see you forgot to buy a snow shovel after yours broke
Beautiful drive into the cabin Gordon. Yes weird winter for sure. We got about 4 inches before Christmas and it was almost gone with the rain. Then we got the polar vertex. We went from 26 and 34 degrees to-34 in 30 hours and stayed below 0 for 4 to 5 days. During that time we got about a 12 to 18 inches of snow. It has been raining off and on for the last 2 weeks and the snow is almost gone. Stay warm my friend
Good morning sir. 🕊
Good morning!
Good morning GP
Morning Robert!
Thanks for sharing Gord, crazy weather conditions really cause a game plan to be ruined and changed often. Sure hope everything works out okay for you all around there. Stay safe and good luck in the months ahead. Fred.
GP, what is your fuel burn for an average storm clean up?
Good day - that's a great question _ I can't remember the numbers but the year before last I did a study and recorded my hours per tank through the winter and then in the summer and released them on a video. I am getting old ( LOL) but I think it was around 15 hours per tank in the summer months and around 11 or 12 in the winter. I remember there was not a big difference - I am pretty sure that was it.
Thanks, I’ll have a look.
Take care!
Good morning G.P. I sure do enjoy your snowblowing videos. Talk about strange weather it was 75 yesterday here in Virginia. Felt like spring rather than winter. In my comment on the NUG check my reply if you haven’t. I’m not very savvy with technology so that’s why it’s there. Bless you friend
How many acres do you own GP? It looks like more than 20 to me.
Hey GP! Great video that I can relate to all too well. The question is how many shear pins for the total this year? Haha
GP, is your area pretty much Kubota country ❓Have you ever looked into John Deere ❓
LOL! It is but I didn't get it for that reason. Honestly (and respectfully) I did tours at 2 Deere dealerships while narrowing down my decision and sadly, I think I just got sales people that perhaps were not the most customer friendly. So I turned my attention to Kubota, Kioti and Massey, and then finalized it from there. I am sure they are great machines as they have a good rep and history but the dealer relationship was an important factor to me in the sales decision. Cheers!
Please could you turn on the subtitles?
Is this model blower still considered the heavy duty model ? yours seems to take a beating was just curious if the smaller model for the lx was gear drive or also chain
Hi mike, the think the smaller residential model was similar to my old B2782 blower - it was gear drive, I believe
What setting do you set your 2 skid plates at ?
GP, Are you using wheel spacers on your LX? What size?
You bet - I needed to so I can use chains. They are Kubota OEM spacers - I believe they are 1 3/8" on each side - the maximum width Kubota recommends for the back axle. Cheers John!
@@GPOutdoors Thank you. That is what is going on my LX. They told me that non-Kubota spacers would void some of the warranty and the 1 3/8 spacers is all they offered.
@@johnmagliocca3995 Well, I am not very mechanical but neighbour Guy is pretty smart on these things and he told me that when I put wheel spacers on the rear axle, it causes some kind of strain on the axle and components ( I may have said that wrong but hopefully made sense) so when we discussed the after-market spacers available up to 3", he strongly suggested that if Kubota thought is was ok to extend the axle 6 inches , they would offer 3" spacers too - so I decided to stay in my warranty and get the OEM ones. Hope that helps. Good luck John!
Moving metric snow must be harder than just removing inches.
You speak in imperial measurements when you take about snow.
Good day JB. It can for those that don't understand metric so I try to speak in both when I remember. Thanks for watching - have a nice weekend!
hi Gord i like everythings on your 2 channels but one thing i don t understand is why you shovel snow with a round shovel instead of a light proper good plastic square one made for snow shoveling 🙄
He had a bit of a mishap with his snow shovel in his last episode. He put so much behind it that the handle came right off.
I have never noticed any bird feeders at the Cabin. Do you not feed them during the winter?
Definitely and odd winter...I talked to a guy yesterday that said his solar panels have been averaging 1% the last 2 months. The only thing we have had less of besides snow this winter is sunlight and I need sunlight to function properly!🌞
Where I'm from, sunlight is far in between during winter, regular standard here is if you get solar panels hoping for great function in the winter, you've been misled.
