It is possible Charlie and certainly no problem driving on the frozen 
ground these days . But the thought of starting
combines/tractors/trucks in this 0 degree temperature is not appealing 
at all. I've left flax swath out once years ago
and it combines fine in the spring but the deer damage is the biggest 
problem. If the grain shows a trace of deer crap
it is rejected. A feed mill bought mine back in 02 but it is not worth 
half what good clean flax is.
