DIY Ski Hill Rope Tow and Trail Groomer

I've wanted to make a rope tow for my sledding and skiing hill for years. This is the design I ended up with after quite a bit of research. I've been amazed at how well it works and has held up. Also as a bonus, I show off my DIY snow groomer which does a great job of taking the bumps and dips out of the snow hill as well as packing down the surface.

Shout out to my dog Bear who forces his way into a starring role multiple times.
