While we were there, we always plugged in the block heater... Maybe due to them being outdoors night and day, didn't take as long to 'warm up the heater'. The tires weren't studded, but had what appeared to be a special tread pattern. There were 2 sections of road that were "washboards"(!!!), for about 1 block each. But otherwise OK. Interesting to me, the 'Haul Road' was not bad either... But then the chug holes were 'paved over' with snow/ice. The 1st night we were in Anchorage, it snowed about 20 inches. Interesting to me how many locals had snowplows attached to their trucks, for clearing all the parking lots.
Here, the main roads get cleared, maybe a few parking lots. But then it rarely snows that much. But upon rare occasions...
