Frost Fighters

About Frost Fighters

Out where Swamp Creek winds through Upper Frederick township, the fields lie open and the wind has nothing at all to slow it down. Frost Fighters works that country in winter — plowing long farm-lane driveways, clearing walkways, spreading salt where the shade of a barn or treeline keeps ice locked in place. Snow here drifts hard against fencerows and rebuilds itself an hour after the blade goes by, so a storm is rarely a single trip. Nights run late along Big Road and the lanes off it: headlights, falling white, not much else. By sunrise the drives are open, which is the entire ambition.
