We’re still digging out from the last couple of days of non-stop snow. Beth was on the tractor for quite a while today, clearing snow from in front of the barns and around the other buildings. This evening I needed to unhitch the horse trailer and had to clear some more ground to park it on. So I climbed in the tractor and started clearing.
At one point I looked over and realized the snowbank I was piling the new snow on was getting as tall as the tractor itself. I stopped the tractor, went inside to get the camera, and took this photo. It was about 6 p.m.
From this angle the tractor looks taller, but if you look at the cottage in the background, you can see the snowbank is well above the windows of the building. I think it’s about 8 feet high. This is heavy, wet snow … ideal for Montana, which is still recovering from a long-term drought.
