Default '11 Cayenne S-- Winter Update

800 mile round trip to Mont Tremblant (Canada) this weekend for skiing, dog sledding (yes, dog sledding...more on that below) and the Norweigian spa. http://www.tremblant.ca/village/index-e.htm

-4 (F) the whole weekend; Snow and Ice.... the Cayenne dominated.... What a truck!!!

Tremblant is some kind of place. Highly recommended. (Here's a great place to stay: http://www.rvmt.com/renttremblanthom...d=4&unit_id=54). Ski in/Ski out, unreal views etc...


Dog sledding was a hoot... Mrs. Rome really enjoyed the part where Mr. Rome was "driving" the sled while on his stomach with a face full of snow and a pack of wild dogs pulling him. Here is a pic taken when Mr. Rome was faring a little better.

Great shot. Thanks for sharing it with us Rome. Did your sled have PTV and/or PDCC ?

Looks like a great road trip. How did the heated windshield work in the sub zero climate? Would you order it again if you could do it all over? I'm on the fence....

Yes, would definitely order it again... It's worth the tradeoff IMO...

Is there anything at all I could trade in order to see those photos?

Nice, I live about 2hrs from tremblant, it is lots of fun, too bad there is no night skiing! Lots to do and stuff but it can be a bit expensive.

I am heading to lake placid this weekend, heard its supposed to be great, not bringing the PIG though...

It's nice that our forum's cunning linguist stopped by with today's grammar and thesaurus check.
