Транспорт
When visiting in winter many areas may be impacted by snow
4x4 or chains may be required at some times of year. Bring waterproof layers and boots with traction to avoid slipping or trouble. In rare cases the snow plow can block the driveway entrance and require a quick shovel to get under the carport.
