Neighbor has a Ranger with a plow for the same reason very particular about how his driveway is plowed but haven’t seen him on a snowmobile in years. Too much snow in Phelps for me to remove snow from driveway and plow guy knows the drill. I stake my driveway in critical areas plow guy knows to go easy. Custom Landscaping does mine and I couldn’t be happier with their drivers. There is a learning curve with plow guys so when you find the right one for you should stay with him.

We have a 16 Ranger with Boss plow, dont mess with any other plow you will regret it.
Should be able to get a new 18 Ranger XP with power steering and Boss straight plow for under 15.5 plus tax and reg.
Easily plows 10 inches of fluff or 6 inches of wet snow without chains.

Kubota, cab and heat for me up North. Blowing snow in my PJs, slippers with a cup of coffee works for me.
LOL - I've heard of guys doing some unusual things in PJ's, but this is a new one. Not criticizing - I've shoveled in mine.

I would agree, it was quite the perfect conditions.
Yesterday Harski, Harvest, Greg and I backpacked out of Minocqua to Mercer, Hurley, west to Frontier Bar and Saxon Harbor then trail 160 to Ironwood, trail 2 towards Bergland then the lake down to Gogebic lodge and finally east back to Hurley. All trails were excellent and covered with 3-8 inches of fluff and flat underneath.
Today, rode Hurley on the back trails down through Gile, WI, south and then east on the Turtle/Flambeau trail, south into Price County then east to the Lac Du Flambeau casino; again new snow and flat trails; nobody here.
I cut my trip short to head back to Green Bay to help with the 9-12 inch storm on the way. Hope it works out, trails are open in Green Bay again.
