I guess it's obvious I don't exactly live in the snow belt....

Thanks for the info - that's the kind of info that those that know take for
granted.

Another related question - I see 'two-link spacing' and 'four-link spacing'
chains. I can see the two link spacing would be better, but how significant
is it? I presume it must help quite a bit, as it sounds like that is what
you did (adding extra cross links). We usually get 6 inch snows here, with
an occasional 2 footer - although the last couple years has been almost 
nil.
