I know what an ice auger is - used to drill ice fishing holes in the lake. What the heck is a snow auger? I can't imagine how that would work. If I really want to know, I'll google it, I guess.
Snardius, do you have an ATV? You can buy a blade for it. Works good. If you don't already have an ATV, you might think of getting one - just for the fun of it!
The things are perfect for eating thru driveway mounds, and will chuck the snow/ice mix 40 or 50 feet.
They cost about $1300 new.
I did not stay in a holiday inn express; I own a snowplow company. LOL
