snow ploughing
Winter street clearing
Snow ploughing is the clearing of snow from roads, paths, or other surfaces using a plough-equipped vehicle.
The term also describes a basic skiing technique where the skis form a V-shape with tips together and tails apart, used for slowing down or stopping: I spent my first lesson just snow ploughing down the bunny slope.
