I have family in Calgary so I am familiar with the country there. I snowboarded once in Lake Louise in -45c, that will make your face fall off.Calgary is pretty flat and has more snow plows than women. Seattle and the surrounding area is really hilly and there are about as many snow plows as there are winning sports teams. The main roads see the love from Mr. Plow and the rest of the side streets get ignored.I have lived in WA all my life, I have never owned a set of snow chains and have never really needed them. Driving on snow is not an issue if you do it correctly. I live on a plateau that can only be accessed by a few mile long hills of 16 to 20% grade (going from sea level to about 750ft above SL). The issue is not me or my driving skills but all the other people who get so gripped by the weather that the end up abandoning their cars on the side of the road. Today is a snow day, so I am going duck hunting. Stay warm</blockquote>
