- Yup. It's a long video. So many of you have asked me to create a long form video. So, this is for you good folks that asked. For others, please feel free to fast forward if you like or click on my channel Icon and there are 730 other videos to watch. This is my Saturday - from just after early morning coffee to finally making it in front of the fire that evening. Wish all of you the very best! Cheers!

Heaven on earth, beautiful and quiet.
There you go! After doing the paperwork, or whatever’s required for authorization. “Good to go” is similar.
Relaxing vid.
This is like GP back in the day, clean white winter, getting the job done , enjoying the moment.
Great time riding along through your beautiful property.
A lot of people don't get to see the winter wonderland like this.Thank's fo sharing!
A great time was had by all. Thanks for taking us along with you Gord. Enjoyed the ride and peaceful plowing. Glad you got everything operating well to keep things thawed out at the Cabin while you're not up there. Glad you got Guy and the other driveways taken care of and I'm sure they were all thankful also. Stay safe and keep up the fun around there too. Fred.
Gord WHITE GOLD ( snow) put on some Newfoundland music 🎶 for the homesickness Newfoundlanders in ONTARIO Canada 🇨🇦 😊.
Geez I have only been there once - got Screeched in and had probably the best time of my life on George Street ( ?) So much fun - great people, great memories :))
The Generac generators are great. I liked mine a lot and it came in handy a few times.
Absolutely beautiful Gord! What I love the most about plowing my drive after a snow like that is getting out of the tractor and just being amazed by how quiet the forest is! It’s very surreal! Thanks for sharing! Cheers!
It sure is Pete. Just the opportunity to stand in silence and wonderment. Thanks!
Thank you for the video GP. So peaceful and healing.
How's she goin'? Some nice to finally get some snow eh!! And it sure does look nice on the trees. But even the simple jobs can become major ones. We have to be ready and able at all ties eh!! Take 'er easy!!
Thanks for the peep inside the generac.
Good Evening GP, with all the Ice Storm comming up it is nice to know that your generator is Fully Fonctional 👍👌😇🙏 Beautiful music and nice road 🎵😇👌👍Coyotes are nice and courrius 🥴🤣🤔👍 MY GOD GP !!! That Sound of Tire SLIPE MAKE ME AIRBORN 🤣👍👍Man I'm happy that you were not under that tree 🙏🙏😇 Cheers 🍻🍻
Hay from Norway Gord. We have a cold winter her too. Temperatur down too - 32 C. Have a good day
Cheers!
Cheers! 😀
Way to go GP. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
Thanks Gord.
Creamy Oil is an indication of moisture/condensation inside the Engine block . Need to run the Engine longer to build up temp to boil off so to speak the Water that is in the oil..
It has been in the 30's in Central Wis and most of My snow is melting away. Less than an inch or 2 left..
I have not plowed / Blowed Snow at all this winter yet..
Did You see the coyote Video of a guy picking up one buy it's tail and dropping it into a dumpster ??
Ooof with the tree. Well spring is on the way!
Beautiful music!
Thanks for sharing, GP! the scenery of a fresh snow in the woods was majestical!
Isn't it a given that solar panels on the roof won't produce power when they are covered with snow...? hmm. Not sure they need to mention it.
A winter wonderland 👍🏻 You don’t mind snow when you have a machine like that.
Always enjoy your perspective and commentary.
Once again! Great Video! I really enjoy them!
Great to see how your generac generator runs wells . I like mostly all electric systems and some propane equipment .
Thinking of going TH-camr . May have to get someone who knows how to set it up for me . Yes the forest is quite
a nice place to live in . No coyotes near my place . Because a wolf pact resides in the area . They just love coyotes .
The wolves come near my house a couple of times . My 2 Dobermans and the wolves were eyeballing each other through
the heavy duty commercial chain-link . No aggressiveness from either dogs or wolves . I walk out of the house some 40 feet from them and after looking at me for a few seconds they trotted away like I wasn't there . I started howling and they kept
going further into the forest . Yes the forest brings in deer , a moose , lynx , hares , wolves etc...
Until next time Gord and company .
Sounds great - good luck Claude!
You should build a little cover over that generator keeping the snow and moisture away from the unit. Personally, I prefer the sound of the tractor working over the music.
Thanks John!
Beautiful footage, Gord! Have a good one!
Very prety. Thanks for sharing Gord
Thanks for the ride! ✌
The quiet from snow I miss. I have that same tractor love the enclosure in case you hit a yellow jacket nest I highly recommend
Thanks Gord...I completely enjoyed Stopping By The Woods on a Snowy Evening. (OK...morning, but you know what I mean!) Cheers.
Thanks for this awesome video Gord. Can't think of a better way to relax then a heated cab driving through that amazing forest snow blowing. Cheers from Sask.
Watching from the Dallas Texas area. I grew up in SW Pennsylvania and miss the snow sometimes. But at 70 don’t miss the cold. Enjoy your channel.
Beautiful!!! Thanks for the ride along!!! Glad the generac only needed looking At!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thank-you! You've got me thinking about trading in winter rains for winter snow...
Beautiful scenery and I love the song
Looks beautiful covered in snow!
That driveway just keeps going and going. Looks like a fun time, and nice and snug in the cab
Beautiful, thanks for the ride!
Love ❤️ all your videos Gord. But I especially love the snowblower videos. Surprised viewers don’t want to hear the machinery sounds. I particularly like them…but you gotta give em what they want. 😊
Gordo, I could watch your drive up and down that drive all day long, blowing the snow. Thanks for the ride.
Cheers Mitch!
You guys have a lot more snow there than we have here in New Brunswick .thanks for the ride in the woods it was pretty and yes you had a busy day thanks for sharing take care
That is the one short coming of Generac. You would think they could design an air intake that doesn't such in the snow. Last year when it was -10F degrees and we had a giant snow and wind storm we lost power for 3 days. My Generac suck in the snow, melted it and had 2 inch snow block in the bottom of the intake chamber. Had to pull it apart to get it running again. No fun. I now put a set of wood panels around the intake so it has small intake area that keeps the snow out. I decided I'm going to make a plastic tarp that will be like a lean to around the intake end with a furnace filter mounted to a mesh in the tarp to stop the snow from being able to get in at all. Take care Gord and God Bless.
I have been considering a Generac, I am surprised that much moisture gets in.. perhaps it needs a ‘switch’ like chainsaws have to direct air into carb.
Good morning GP, thanks for taking us along, absolutely beautiful! Ben
Thanks Ben!
Very nice. Relaxing. Great music choice. I'd vote for more - selectively. Makes me wish for snow but happy we haven't had over 3 inches so far. I'm in the PNW so looks familiar. Thanks!
Great stuff GP keep'em coming ❄
GP I still say heated concrete driveway. Have fun
Maybe you were just kidding, of course.
LOL!!
Good morning GP, and a beautiful morning it is😊
Good morning Gord! Have you thought about building a lean to over your generator? The whine of a tractor is music to my ears😆👍❄️
I have but the Generac techs are telling I shouldn't. But I think I might...Cheers RFL!
A perfect morning there GP!
Hi Gord, I made it to 76 years of age today and my B2601 finally got to 100 hours on it. So far I have only plowed snow twice, which is fine with me since I don't have a heated cab like you do.
Hey Happy Birthday Ron! I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for sticking with me for so many years. You are just getting wiser, not older my friend. :)) All the best sir!
Oops just saw your answer for the filter , I built a roof over my genny never had the snow inside issue.
It is funny how different noises bother people...The transmission noise doesn't bother me at all, yet the squeaky front door hinges on the cabin always gets me!
Thanks for both the ride along and for helping Guy out!👍
LOL! Ok, I will oil them my friend! :)) Cheers!
@GPOutdoors Oil, silicone, graphite powder??? Sounds like a whole video!!🤣🤣
Re generator: Perhaps build a shroud to keep snow away from the air intake (saturated air filter likely means moisture getting into the carb and also impeding proper air/fuel ratio). Great channel, long time subscriber. Cheers!
Beautiful area you and your buddies have 😊
Beautiful
That's not a driveway it's a short road. I had over 2 feet of snow and enjoyed plowing it but were having a few warmer days but sure hoping for lots more snow.
Hi Gord just a little note.I noticed your chute controls are very touchy like mine were ,I went to princess auto and bought some flow control valves and put them in line by the swing motor and vertical chute cylinder now they operate smooth a silk . Love your content keep up the great work.
Thanks. That's a great idea. Cheers!
Majestic.
Never had my air filter get wet but mine is in North side of house so think it’s protected, but I’ll keep an eye on it. Thanks for the ride along GP. Beautiful 👍❄️
Something is wrong. The filter shouldn't be wet.
@@stevecrossland3681 The snow gets blown into the intake grill in the winters. Every winter. When it is windy and snowing. Every winter. :)
Snow, water, wet filter, creamy looking oil, that motor is not going to survive. Just sharing my wisdom, it needs better protection. Cheers!
@@stevecrossland3681 Agreed. Can't argue that. :) Cheers!
I keep trying to picking the one dot off my iPad screen
I don’t mind the noise of the tractor, it tell you how the tractor and the blower are doing
Wondering about tire chains Gord. I've seen several snow removers lately with chains on front tires and not on rear. Seem like there'd be pros and cons. Is that something you've considered?
I agree with some other commenters, I'd be thinking about a smal shelter for the generator. Water intrusion is never good with engines or elecricity. Cheers from another Gord. Love your videos.
Morning Gord!Yes, a few times - even thought about studs for the fronts but have not decided on more chains. I do well without them overall. If I start to slip in the corners or turns, I just lift the blower up a bit and I get traction again. Yes, I am thinking I need to put something up. Thanks and all the best!
Thanks for the video, can you share the music title?
Why is it wet?
Can you explain for us Yanks the phrase "Bob's your Uncle!"?
LOL! I think there are a few versions but for us it is kind of saying something like "and that's that", or "that's what it is". I actually have two uncle Bob's. :)) have a good one!
Have a great day Gord!
Wonderful video Gordon. How do you like using the cruise control? I hope you have plenty of diesel on hand. Beautiful winter wonderland.
Morning James. I love it - great advice and i use it most of the time now when clearing snow. Slow and steady.:)) Thanks!
Great music when you got in the tractor Morgan Wallen😂😅
Good day Gord! Well at least you weren’t driving under that tree when it decided to go! Winter time is always interesting! We had about 2” of snow last night, it is going to stop shortly and I will get out there and start clearing. Also have to cut a path for the propane guy!
LOL! Yup, good point. :)) Have a good one! Rain is on the way here now.
Hey GP, how was the snowmobile ride....oh that's right.... I had a great time this weekend doing some riding. If you haven't, you need to test drive a 900 Turbo R sled. The 180HP is just fabulous!!
LOL! Heyyyy....glad you had a good run. You had some great snow for the ride. Rain here today and tomorrow. Have a good one!
It was looking like that here too, But its already started raining looks like we'll lose most of our snow.. Snowmobile trails were open for around a week and got a ton of use
Here too but I agree, pretty sure those gates will be locked within the next couple of days down here.
Snow Sure is pretty GP. Glad your Generac was alright. My Generac looks very similar to yours and I've had it almost 10 years. Never has let me down. I have a yellow warning light on. Probably need to clean up the battery terminals.
Service Indicator for sure. Good luck Dean!
A couple quick questions if you don't mind. Why don't you blow your snow a little more to the side? Do you always have to add engine oil and hydraulic after working the tractor hard? And do you have many deer in your area?
Hi Jerome. I angle it for the camera LOL. So you folks can see it better in the videos. but normally yes, I send it sideways when the camera is not running. I should have mentioned I just did the 400 hour service and after using it I needed to top up all the fluids. Usually the tractor does not burn or use any oil. Thanks Jerome!
Good morning Gord. The fresh snow sure is beautiful in the forest. Have you ever considered building a three sided enclosure for your generator? Of course you would leave enough room for fresh air to circulate around it but it would protect it more from the blowing snow getting sucked into the air intake. I would hate for you to have a catastrophic failure when you are not there. Just a thought. Cheers.
Hey thanks - yes - several times but the Generac techs up here have warned me not to. It is supposed to stand alone and work properly. :)) But I am thinking I will do it regardless. I know that cream in the oil is not good form the snow amd mopisture so I may just do it this summer. Thanks!
Seems like if the enclosure is big enough it will have proper ventilation but keep snow out of the metal enclosure.
Beautiful morning with the snow. Here in MN we are definitely missing it.
Thanks for the videos and positivity you always show.
Cheers Mark!
I tried to get a generac two years ago they would approve it (withlocoochee electric)
Where did you get your wheel spacers , please and thanks.
If you dry out that air filter on your Generac generator; Can you re-use it, or is it finished?
Winter wonderland, who knew that a man on his tractor blowing snow could bring so much peace and joy to people? Hi G.P. I noticed you have hydraulic chute rotations and elevations. Do you have any insight on hydraulic chute or electric? Thanks for the video have a wonderful day
Hey happy you enjoyed it Ronald. I prefer hydraulic everything - so I ordered the hydraulic kit on it - the driveway winds so much that I need to keep flipping it as I drive through. Have a great week my friend!
Gord I have the same generator and I used to get that creamy oil. I switched to Mobil 1 and no more creamy oil. Might be similar with any synthetic oil. Give it a try.
Hey thanks Tom - I will give it a try when I buy it next time. Thanks!
The air filter
Very relaxing! You are spot on with little inconveniences like that tree, they always seem to happen. One question and comment. It’s great that you show yourself checking the fluids, but does your tractor burn oil? It sure seemed like a generous gulp you were adding. I have never had to add a drop to mine after 400 hours this past year and I check it daily. I hope Guy provided a warm beverage after your plowing.
Hey BLT! No, it doesn't at all. But I should have mentioned that the last time I touched the tractor, I did the 400 hour service and so I was told after you run it a bit, to top up the fluids and that was what I was doing. It does not burn oil at all. But I did need to top up the front axle, oil and the trans fluid. :) Cheers!
Hey Gord, why would the filter be soaked...looks to be well protected??
The air intake is on the right side cabinet grill. when it is windy and snowing, the engine sucks in the snowy air. All the best John!
Rather hear the engine then that music
GP, now that's a day. How long do you plug in the block heater, before starting? Thanks in advance. Cheers
I plug in anytime it is at 0 degrees or below ( 32F). And depending on how cold it is I will leave it longer. But normally at least 30 minutes. Longer if it is super cold. :)
Nice video, Gord. Who is the music from?
Thansk! A couple of folks from my music service I use for YT. Not commercial. Cheers!
Hey GP, I watch all of your videos and whenever you have to add oil, etc. to your tractor or chainsaw, the bottle always has some type of spout on it. I can't find it anywhere and even went to my local auto parts store and tried to describe it but they didn't have anything. Any chance you could provide a link to where you get them? Seems like they make less of a mess that pouring straight out of the bottle or using a funnel. Thank you.
Good morning Antonio- thanks for watching! The fluids i put into the tractor are Kubota oils and they have a built-in spout that you pull out. The most recent jug I use for the chainsaws I bought this past summer and i would not recommend it - it leaks and was very expensive. Thanks again - wish you all the best sir!
@GPOutdoors thank you for the fast response. I buy Kubota oils here (New York), and our jugs don't come with that spout, unfortunately.
Could I ask how much was the blower? U.S. I have the same tractor 😃
Since you brought up the hydraulic whine , a few videos ago,
It's the first thing that I notice now.
I wonder now if you had a geared tractor, as well.
Which one would you use more often ?
Morning Jean! Good question - probably still this one - I usually wear ear protection so i don't hear it much at all anymore ( except when I playback the videos LOL!) Have a great week!
I also have this tractor. Yes it does whine from the hydraulics but I just wear hearing protection which I would do anyway. It has been a flawless piece of equipment for me and glad I have a cab.
@@mikeneeley1836 Ditto Mike! Cheers!
How many hours you have on your Generator? They make a air box heater to keep ice from forming. I have a 26kw....living in Kentucky
I have all three heater kits on the genny. :)
GP, how long do you leave your tractor heater plugged in?
How a why was your filter wet
Intake on the right side of the cabinet sucks in the snowy air.
Did u need wheel spacers for your chains?
Hey C2 - yes for sure - it is a must have or the chains will hit the hydraulic hoses on the right side and the fenders. Cheers!
Thanks
One thing I've never heard you talk about is that a large portion of you're channel is geared towards cutting splitting fire wood 🪵 for your neighbor's. Yet you choose not to use it yourself for your home. I live in western NY on the other side of the Ontario lake and I take full advantage of wood stove. Even in this recent cold snap my furnace never even turned on and my house was @ 78 to 80 degree farinhite. Just a curious thought. Regards
Can’t speak for him, but wood heat needs a certain amount of regular attention ( storing the wood, making kindling, starting the fire, maintaining the fire, sometimes tricky overnight). You go away for some time and the temps are below freezing, maybe your plumbing freezes, etc. A propane fired system with a thermostat takes care of itself. Plus you can set it to keep the cabin from freezing when unoccupied, which might be his situation.
Morning Joseph ! Jan, below answered - I don't live here so I am not here to manage it and I need to keep the cottage warm enough to make sure the pipes don't freeze, food in the freezer etc. while I am away. But i do enjoy working in the forest. Cheers!
@@GPOutdoors Understood, the very best to you Sir.
Hi Gord! Awesome video. What gloves are you using these days. I saw your glove videos from past years.
I am using War Armour gloves. :)) So far so good. :)
Thank you
Gord, I'm just curious.. Do you have any plans of upgrading to the new 20 series LX? Or you riding the 2610 til the wheels fall off?
Thank you!
I am contemplating it but not sure yet. This tractor has been excellent - no issues at all. Stay tuned :)
@@GPOutdoors I've got a 2610 and am also considering it is why I ask. Thank you for the response and I sure will keep tuning in!
Hey GP, any idea how/why that air filter got wet? Seems like it could be catastrophic to the engine but I’ve never even thought to check that on mine.
Good morning. Yes, snow comes in through the intake vent on the right side. That was ice on the top of the filter and the filter was soaked through. Not good for the engine at all. :) But it has always been this way. The manual says that if I enclose the unit it will void my warranty. Good luck.:)
Well, that seems bureaucratically spot on…. Thanks, have a great day!
LOL!@@SL54321
Seems as if you had a bit of day, didn't you?
:)
GP what size it that gen set? Just a question, if you say put one of those portable car ports in front of the tractor, would they pitch a bytch?
Hey Skeets! it is a 16KW - runs everything. The car port is prohibited under our local Bylaws. But it is not so bad - only when we have high winds and snow. :) Cheers!
