Default This photo was not taken at the barn

I'm just glad we don't have to resort to these methods at the barn, at least so far.

Unless you are a masochist, the only way to get into the feilds of dreams is by snowshoe. Once you got to the field, I don't know how much you'd see sticking out of the snow. Bare chassis would be invisible and most trucks would probably be little more than a few corners sticking out of the snow pile.....

I've been watching as this snow pile grew during the winter. They started by just dumping the truck loads. As space became scarcer, they pushed the snow up into a heap using a bulldozer. Now they've run out of space for simple measures and are using excavators to lift the snow from one level to the next and then to the next. It will be several months before the ground gets back into sight from under the pile. No perspective tricks were used, in fact the pile starts several hundred feet behind the bus. These are real excavators as well, not the toys used by landscapers.
