Check out these pics from Oswego, NY. RT 11,
Its Central NY... About 45 minutes from Syracuse

For anyone who knows heavy equipment, that loader is a CAT 962G...

My guys had to tunnel their way into the garage just to get the snowmobiles out to get around town. The fire dept was stranded, and the snow-mobilers who actually got to their sleds were the only means of transportation.

wbcarver showed me some picts of NY when he lived there. Picts similar to these and of heavy equipment clearing roads and parking lots.

There was one Hotel or resort or something that the dozer got a little off course and drove over a live of parked cars that were completly coverd. Crushed all of them! :D
 
Got the same pit a few years back but they said that it was not in the us and the tag on the car was not US...
Thinking greenland or Canada...

ya, but I don't care where it is. that's pretty impresive!

I've been down roads with 2 meters of snow on either side riding in a tour bus, and barely be able to see out of the gulley. That was pretty impresive. that looks to be MUCH DEEPER! :D
 
I grew up half way between Syracuse and Owsego. I don't think that picture is from there but I have seen snow banks that big a little bit north of that in Barnes Corners, NY. It is due east of Lake Ontario on the Tug Hill Plateau and snow blows in there like you wouldn't believe.
