Default Last snow(hopefully)

Just finished plowing what is hopefully the last storm up here in Northern MN for the Winter. I have a Glacier I plow on my 09 Sportsman 800 that spent a lot of time on my 05 800. I plow about an acre all season and am just curious why Polaris would have gone to the Glacier II system which it seems by all the posts is a problem child and not up to the task. Glad I chose not to pick one up.

I hear you, I was going to buy a glacier, but my dealer talked me into a Mosse plow. I like it very much. Funny how we get all excited in anticipation of first snow and can't wait for it to end in spring!

Yep, you guys have really been getting clobbered. Sure hope it lets up for you.

As for the Glacier system... seems to be limited mostly to some 500's (like mine). I've gotten over it, and moved on... to a different plow system.

if it wont snow enought to plow, or it wont dry up so i cant do driveway gradeing it dont help me. its amzing when your a kid you want it to snow so you can either make snowmen, go sledding or get out of school. now i either want it to snow enough so i can plow driveways and make some money. pr dry up so i can do otherthings. this midpoint is a pain!

Yeah,all this late snow sucks. Really putting a damper on getting my bike out. Got about 300 miles in riding my V-Star to work before the last storm. Hoping to get it out his weekend. Hoping it warms up enough to get the Harley out soon.

I've had enough of it too,heavy wet snow is a PITA!
Even a few sunny spring days would be nice!
