We have reached the 600cm snowfall this year, just under the record held in 1947,, the snow bank is exactly what you see,, even my snowblower is no longer capable to throw it over the top,,lol. The drive way is about 30ft wide and the bank is just as big on the other side.

BTW, the hood had to go back to the paint shop,, for some odd reason I had a bubble come up in a corner,, funny as it is the only one on the whole car.

That looks scary. Much to much snow. Love those 73's. I think they will be the next split window desirable year.You can always tell what year they are.
