Brrr! We got hit by a winter storm here at the Yoga Cabin! It snowed close to a foot overnight with more in the forecast across western Washington! Winter weather can be a real life changer especially for the unprepared traveler! Are you prepared for when winter weather strikes? Luckily WSDOT has prepared a winter driving checklist so you can see how your current motor travel preparedness matches up! For a free printable checklist visit:
Tire chains can be extremely important for winter travel and may even be legally required for travel through certain areas such as mountain passes. Although having chains in your vehicle can make you feel secure, they are almost useless unless you know how to properly install them. Take the time to practice installing your winter chains BEFORE you need to use them. Once you’ve practiced it a couple times it’s easy enough to do! If you decide to wait until your caught in a blizzard though, you probably won’t enjoy the stressful and cold experience, and improper installation means you could potentially lose your chains or damage your vehicle. Practice makes perfect, practice will make you safer!
Whatever the season may be it’s always a good idea to travel with an emergency kit; Extra food, water and a medical kit are always a good idea to have on your person, and especially in your vehicle! Think of your vehicle as your survival capsule against the frigid elements!
Don’t forget your vehicle’s needs this winter either! Cold, wet weather can be especially hard on your vehicles electrical system; Batteries, starters, lights and signals are all prone to higher rates of failure in the winter. Tire pressure can also be reduced by the change in temperature between the seasons. If you have the means, getting your vehicle inspected for the winter season is a great idea! In these days of the vast and free world of YouTube tutorials, there’s been no better time to learn to do it yourself if you are so inclined!
We here at Wholelife Northwest wish you safe and happy winter travels, and hope to see you soon! Book Now!

Happy Holidays from the Wholelife Northwest team! We've already had the first snow of the season here down at the farm, and snow has already been up on the ridge for better than a month now! Time to break out the winter gear and start burning…
One such favorite is the surprisingly little known "Beaver Falls"! This little 'hidden gem in plain sight' is just 2 miles north on HWY 113 (aka Burnt Mountain Rd) from the junction with the HWY 101 right along the highway next to a wide, unmarked turnout.
