Jumpin' Jim's Stump Grinding

About Jumpin' Jim's Stump Grinding

Every stump this crew ground flat last fall is buried somewhere under a foot of Kalispell snow by January, waiting for spring the same as everything else in the yard - but Jumpin' Jim's Stump Grinding doesn't sit idle for the season. The trucks get plow blades bolted on, and the same crew that knows exactly where a hidden root system runs uses that knowledge to keep from catching a blade on buried debris. Driveways get cleared with an easy, practiced rhythm, one truck leapfrogging the next down a street lined with mailboxes half-buried in the last plow pass. Walkways get shoveled clean, salt goes down at the front steps, and the piles get pushed somewhere that won't turn into a mud pit come thaw. It's a different kind of work than a chainsaw and a grinder, but the same crew, the same streets, and the same care for what's underneath the snow.
