Winter work is here

You do not have a lot of room to push it to the sides.
Looks like you have a "bull plow" on the nose, they are mandatory in my opinion, most of the time "we" carried them a few inches off the pavement, the weight on the front was more important. That was on Donner Summit and at the time we were running AW 300 Pacer 4x4 with 4-71 detroits.

You are right about not much room on the sides. It begins to be a challenge later in the winter, typically, with the snow falling back in the road. The ''wings" I added to the moldboard help. And the bull plow makes a big difference for sure. Mind you, we don't get anything like the snow you would have been getting on Donner Summit! I hope to widen the road a bit, but it's an access road that I maintain but do not 'own'.

if it was me a chainsaw would accidentially start and remove some storm "damaged" timber

Funny how those chainsaws can develop a mind of their own. The road is, in fact, a bit 'wider' in a few spots. You could say that it's evolving... 😊

yes especially when your neighbour is a retired logger.

Reminder - that white blanket covers everything.
Concrete Curbs, Bridge Joints, Culvert Abutments, stumps, etc have an awakening effect upon operators that get complacent. Seat belts help but they do not take the ouch away from those sudden stops of the machine and the operator does not stop as quickly.
Trunions on the circle can be pulled completely off, plow rams, arms, lift rams, etc.
Thus the reason behind SNOW STAKES and those Colored Reflective Tapes. They all have meanings, depending on color and positioning.
As much fun as snow removal can be, it is a very hazardous job. Hopefully you do not have traffic to deal with at the same time.
