Snow Removal in Perth, NY

Because open farmland gives wind nothing to slow it down. It picks up already-fallen snow, carries it across the fields and drops it in the first sheltered spot, which is very often a driveway or a cut in the road. On exposed Perth properties this is normal, not exceptional, so we plan return passes into the schedule.
