Our SX4 on the way up to the mountain

Mercedes and I had relatives in town from New Zealand, and they wanted to go skiing up on Mt. Hood. Hey, twist our arms. On went the Thule rack, we loaded up the skis and snowboard, and up to Mt. Hood Meadows ski resort we went. The roads were pretty clear, so the i-AWD system didn't have to do too much work, but it was good to know it was there. The conditions were better than we expected, and a good time was had by all.

Mt. Hood is getting dumped on right now, so hopefully we'll be headed up the mountain again here soon, and we can put the i-AWD and General snow tires through their paces.
