Best method I’ve found is a garden rake and litter box scoop. Frozen pickles pop out of the snow very cleanly with a rake, then the litter scoop sifts out the bit of snow before bagging. Literally 5 mins a couple times a week.

I can’t imagine the spring horror if I left them all winter. Plus your dogs are walking in that, and come the spring thaw, that’s coming into your house on their paws.
Using a power rake is such a good idea... I’m an idiot. Method changed!
