Snow Pros

About Snow Pros

The Chena River threads quietly past the back of a lot of Badger properties, frozen over by November most years and easy to forget about until spring, and Snow Pros works the driveways along its banks with that kind of low-key attention. Winter mornings out here start dark and stay that way for a long stretch, the sun barely clearing the spruce line before ten, so most of the route runs by headlight rather than daylight. Homesteads along Badger Road tend to have outbuildings as well as houses, so a plow route often means clearing a path to a shop or a woodshed as well as the driveway proper. Deep cold settles into the flats along the river worse than it does up on higher ground, thick and still, so routes here sometimes run later in the day once temperatures have eased off a degree or two. It's steady work on a stretch of road built more for function than scenery, and the plowing matches that.
