Just a clarification.. The fuse Carol refers to is an auto resetting circuit breaker. It will reset soon as it cools down. If the slide mechanisms are kept lubed you'll likely not have a problem moving them. They may be slower but we all are in that kind of weather.

As Carol said, if you don't have the slide toppers you will likely want to sweep off the snow and chip off the ice. We have the toppers and they just roll off the edge, as Carol said.

If you are going to spend quite a bit of time with the furnace running you might look into getting a 100 lb propane bottle (external) and the extend-a-stay hose connection or similar. We've found many CG's provide the 100 lb bottle, often at no cost. You pay for the propane. We use one of these for our Nov/Dec stay in the Kansas City area and used on in Colorado for October, 2003.
