Moving to the north - pitfalls?
 
#6
eh, dose for symptoms and give it a month.

Since you aren't comfortable giving exact locations, here's the five-point-plan for a new fish in Alaska/Anchorage.

1) Get an AWD/4WD vehicle. FWD is less desirable, RWD is asking for trouble. none of these will help you stop quicker, or, really, handle better, but they make
life up here a LOT easier.

2) Get good winter tires. Studded or Studless (Blizzak/Michelin X-Ice). All Weather tires aren't.

3) Stop tailgating. Keep a sane following distance (I hold a 4 second following at 75), and you'll stay out of the ditch and the emergency room.

4) IF you suffer from SAD, get a SAD light ASAP and use it. A workout regimen can also help counteract SAD.

5) If you have/enjoy an outdoor hobby (Hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, etc), acquire and become comfortable with a .45 calibre handgun, unless you plan on
staying in developed areas. Wildlife can and will end you.
