Snow removal from back roof of Birch Ridge Inn

Snow removal from back roof of Birch Ridge Inn

Sunday and Mondays snow dump yielded some great ski days earlier this week. Locals and guests alike enjoyed what Mother Nature gave us. But while guests are still playing on the slopes, work is going on all around town to clean up from the storm and, dare I say, get ready for the next.

In virtually every business around town, front end loaders, snow plows, or snow blowers have been used to move back mountains of snow. Many people, yours truly included, have also been out removing snow from building roofs using a variety of implements. On our flat roofs, I have a nice 3 foot wide scoop to push the snow. For steeper sections, I have a roof rake with 18 feet of extensions

As they say, life is full of trade offs. When it comes to moving piles of snow, you do what you have to do, so that the next time you can go out and play in the snow again!....Let it snow!
