Do you anticipate having to open or close your slides often in that extreme weather?
I would think the worse situation would be where freezing rain would accumulate on the rubber seals before operating the slides.
You could always close the slides before a freezing rain. The slide seals would still be exposed but I don't think it would hurt them unless you try to deflate them with an accumulation of ice.
You're a brave man, sir. Alaska is beautiful but don't think I'd want to spend the winters there in a Newell or even a cabin.
There is a couple who just moved to Alaska around Wasilla and will be living in their Discovery. Look for them on Facebook: Pau Hana Ohana
