Default Stuck or abandoned vehicles

Who is dodging stuck or abandoned vehicles in their neighbourhoods?
From my back window I can see 3 abandoned vehicles so who knows how I am going to get out of my parking area.

Then it remains to be seen if I can even get into the shop yard at work.

Stuck vehicles everywhere. Drove out to Foothills Industrial at 4 a.m. and there are semi's stuck on the turnoffs due to drifts. I have a 4X4 and it was barely making it down any East - West street due to drifts. I called my workers and told them to stay home.

Definitely will avoid the big city. But, I have to visit a compressor site near Cochrane. My plan is to go thru Black Diamond, out to the 22x and on through Bragg Creek. Does anyone know of the conditions out that way?

I can't even get out of my neighborhood. Got stuck before I made one block. So trapped in for another day. Good luck to those in small cars.

Anyone know what Stettler is like? How about #12 from the Sask border to Stettler?
