ABSTRACT:
In the embodiment depicted, the apparatus comprises a snow-negotiable, or slidable platform upon which is mounted a blower and an engine for powering of the latter. Flexible ducts are replaceably coupled to the inlet and outlet apertures of the blower, for ingesting snow thereinto, and for discharging snow therefrom. The outermost end of the first-mentioned duct has a toothed scarifier, projecting therefrom, for fragmenting accretions of snow. The apparatus is towed to adjacency to a bared ski trail area, and snow is displaced from adjacent environs and deposited onto the bared area; the first duct harvests the snow, conducts it to the blower, and the latter discharges the harvested snow, via the second duct, to the trail area which is in need of resurfacing.
