Oh yeah, it took three hour long excursions with it to clear the driveway.

I went out around 6pm and removed the first 3 inches of heavy wet snow since it started getting light and fluffy. By the time I finished (about an hour) there was already another 3 inches on the parts I had cleared first. I went out again around 10pm and removed another foot. That was the real fun one. Then the next afternoon as it was stopping I went back out and took another foot and a half as well as clear the mail box approach.

But we had to do the front and back decks by hand as well as dig a path out to the wood shed which I just finished today.

Just in time for rain and 45 degree weather on Wednesday...
