Didn't get a chance to go yesterday, firewood is more of an issue then I thought, so I spent all day building a path back to the woods

This corner was a bear to get through, it was pretty much solid ice and took a couple hours

Once I got through that it was pretty easy, it was just deep as heck

Once I got to the corner I was debating about going along the fence or behind the berm. I was concerned with the tractors width along the fence line because we rub against it and the berm when taking the riding mower back there. But I was also concerned with all the trees behind the berm since I don't have the under armor installed yet

So I went along the fence and made it through all right

I was able to get around the far back corner and have about another 75 feet to go till I hit our 4 wheeler trail into the woods. There is a bunch of birch blown down right there that I can cut up and bring to the house.

I don't, that's funny. I have the more aggressive tires and was on the fence if I wanted them or not. Your turf tires are supposed to be better in the snow than the R4 ones I have. You can Google it until the cows come home -- it is a hotly debated topic.

Why do you want different tires? Traction problems in the mud/snow? I was having snow traction problems with my R4's and people say turfs are better. Well, I wasn't really having problems -- just trying to move some snow with a lighter tractor with no weight on the back end (this was before I got my blade).

Well got everything. Didn't even think to ask if they had the hay spear. Stopped at a local farm to get some hay on the way back and they have 400 pound round bales so it would be perfect. Off to finish my firewood excursion
