I drove around for another 45 minutes or so after my post and it just got worse to the point where the tires were rubbing on it at all times. I tried hitting some bumps (railroad crossings) a bit extra hard and it did nothing. I guess if I go out again tomorrow I'll take some sort of moderately pointy metal object to knock it off with.

Not hard, just enough to flex it... and the pile usually just drops free.

I've got my rear wheel wells completely packed with slush and have no suspension travel left before the tires hit... I'm wondering what you northerners do about that?
