Currently I’m trying to remember we’re Uncle Trunkie lives. I thought he was in the sunny part of California but am thinking not since he needs traction aids for his element.

Currently thinking cables on front tires only may make back slide very easily which could be fun or terrifying.

Currently I do live in a very sunny and temperate portion of California, but may need to cross The Sierra Nevadas in a January-March timeframe.

Currently the the Element has a Haldex/Haldex-style AWD system, so the primary drive wheels are the fronts, with the rears only kicking in with slip, which, if there were cables on the front, would be minimal.

Currently I was thinking that may be the case.

Currently the United States Marine Corps' winter and high altitude training center is in. . . California, much to the shock of many 'Muricans.

Currently Unkie’s post has me fondly remembering driving past the high altitude military training facility in Kashmir. Now I want to go on a big trip.

Currently this made me think of the song Kashmir by Led Zeppelin.
