About Dale Land Management

An ice storm gives itself away by sound before sight — sleet ticking on the roof, then the slow creak of a glazed limb somewhere out in the dark. Around Sharpesburg it does not take much of that to lock a farm lane down, and the flat open country lets the wind push whatever falls straight across the drives. Dale Land Management runs winter weather here: plowing drives, lots and lanes, clearing walks and steps, and putting salt and sand on the glaze that freezing rain leaves behind. When a system keeps working, so does the truck — back around for another pass until the thing is finished. Opened, treated and passable by first light is the standard. The work covers Sharpesburg and the farm country around it.
