just watch what all the AWD SUV's are doing. And don't do that :)
Tires are very important, it's the only part of your car that can help you in the snow.
'All seasons' are great as long as one of these seasons isn't winter.
Really, use common sense, avoid driving if conditions get real icy or snow gets deep.
Spinning tires more = less traction. Less gas = more traction.
Clutch in around corners can help if you're not going too fast, helps avoid
spinning tires.
Correct speed BEFORE a turn, once in, it might be too late.
My 9-3 does fine in the snow with snow tires.
Good luck and have a safe trip!
Oh - get your wipers and washers in good working order - keep them that way. Clean *all* the snow and ice off your car *before* you head out.
