I thought it was pretty nasty
Try tramping the hills at the time looking - it wasn't fun and it was not nice.
Another paranoia offshoot of all this that I saw is hitting one of the aviation firms in Alaska amongst others. Era Aviation offers sightseeing trips using helicopters, but also a sightseeing/nostalgia trips in couple of DC-3 Dakotas - one of which saw service in the D-Day landings. Because of the cost of fitting the DC-3s with suitable cabin doors ($300k+), their 2 DC-3s are up for sale.....
