Had to put the chains on the tractor last night. I've got a wicked driveway. Going to have to use the tractor for bringing sap up anyway as this is too much snow for my UTV.
Hoping it thaws and starts to run Fri/Sat/Sun. Still have 300 gallons frozen in the tank at the bottom of my lines and I'm 7 gallons short of my goal for the year!
