Cyclone collector maybe?

From the looks of the trees and bushes the road was in a deep cut
through rock before the snow fell. Also, do they really drive on the
left side of the road in Toronto? More likely northern Japan.

There is no snow removal machine anywhere in the world that can leave
such perfect sides in snow that deep.

Right out of college I spent a winter living in that little cabin
settlement at the west end of Donner Lake, CA. It was a heavy winter,
lot's of snow. They plowed the bigger roads and made huge berms like
that.

It was GREAT FUN to take your disposable "snow car" out on the icy
roads, hit the brakes, crank the wheel, and carom down the road,
spinning and bouncing off the vertical berms like you were in a pin
ball game.

Nah! We're Canadians. We use hockey sticks to clear our snow and polar bears
to haul it away. Then we celebrate with maple syrup and back bacon.

That's edible but I would rather eat just about anything else. Used to get
Canadian bacon and maple syrup in the school cafeteria as a kid in Maine.
You'd swear that Maine is part of Canada. Hockey, duck pin bowling, food,
etc. I now live in Washington state. Very little if any Canadian influence
here. Odd.

Not a chance. A real Canadian drinks Sortilège, which is a blend of Canadian
whiskey and maple syrup liqueur. As far as LaJunk goes, we leave that to the
hockey flakes. And, it's fitting too. The fans who unconditionally support
our National hockey embarassment, wouldn't know a real beer if it impaled
them in the butt.

Jack Stein.)

Looks like the snow is about 12" deep on top of a carved out canyon for the
road?

Yes that is a Japanese company number plate. The white on dark green
are fleet issued. Dark green on white are private.

The road is one in the Japan Alps. They are closed for most of the
winter and opened in April after most of the snow has finished

It is probably the Tateyama Snow Corridor

I want to apologize for my statement in an earlier post that no machine
could remove snow that high.

For being wrong, you're sentenced to shovel 100 yards of that highway by
hand.
