In last week it snowed here within 2 days over 50 cm, which is roughly 20 inches. Temperature is below -30 C in the night and around -20-25 C during the day. Fortunately I don't have to drive Camaro, Audi Quattro rules !!!:)

It looks like it finally stopped here , It looks about the same and leveled off at about 5 inches.

Don't have any real-time pics from here, but here are some pics from yesterday. These are some of my friends, having fun in the nature. Off-roading is good hobby in the winter, when you can't drag-race. We have lot's of forest and lots of trails here.

There isn't 50 cm. snow on those pictures, because snowfall was not equally strong everywhere.

Hey Ott
I know what you mean for the winter time. Iam originally from the Pacific Northwest . We have snow from november till may some times . Four wheelin on the logging roads is blast. If wasn't for the license plate I say that was the Pacific Northwest.

OT: Roy, this was just soft-offroading with standard cars - if you like off-road and wan't to see how real action @ our place looks like, check out those pictures:

No problems, here it comes ! :)

Building street/strip cars like ours is dirt cheap hobby compared to this. These things break all the time because of such use, axles, gearboxes, engines - you name it. Lots of $$$. They save on wax though...

This is why I have a 4X4 Expedition as my second vehicle...I dont anticipate any sort of mudding like those last couple pics, but still nice to have in the snowy weather....not that I have experienced much snow in my life.

But its good to have in case of emergency....kinda like lots of horsepower!!!!!

ended up on some asphalt stretch, there was not enough snow on the gras and the ground was not frozen.

Well it snowed here today. Not much, just enough to make me pucker my arse to the seat on the way home. I like seeing it, but not driving a Camaro in it. By the way, anyone know of a good car cover maker?
