Abstract
An attachment is disclosed that is mountable to a scraper blade carried on a powered vehicle such as a log skidder. The attachment is easily mounted and removed from the scraper blade to enable a log skidder to clear roadways of snow and other loose materials. The attachment includes a carrying frame that is releasably mountable directly to the scraper blade. A plow blade is pivotably mounted to the carrying frame. The plow blade is selectively pivotal at its center about a vertical axis to alternate positions forming acute angles with respect to the scraper blade. Therefore, loose material may be plowed to either side of the path desired to be cleared by the blade. Struts are provided that are interchangeable at opposite ends of the blade to enable selective angular positioning of the plow blade.
