This winter image shows a self-propelled road grader in foreground advancing toward the camera plowing snow off the road while reforming the ditch and berm at left. The operator is visible inside. The road is visible in background curving over a low hill. Terrain on both sides and beyond is low rolling and covered with low, thin forest. Moderately deep snow covers the ground with berms on both sides of the road.
