Unless it is built up... you only need to go to the heat transition point where that vertical wall sits under the roof.
The idea is to let the dark surface of the shingle absorb heat and cause the snow to melt at the edge... the water will then run down to the eave and off.
If you decide to clean the whole roof as far as you can reach... usually that Avalanche roof rake will make it easier on the shoulders.
