Iqaluit has more roads than we do but you won't be able to drive out of town anywhere. Should be lots of nice off road adventures for you there!

I need to adjust the TP monitoring settings on my Flashpaq. Last weekend when it got down into the teens, the light came on and wouldn't go off till yesterday. I checked the pressure a few times, with a quality gauge, when it was cold and the lowest I saw it register on any of the tires was 34 PSI.

Remember that the cold make psi go down... Try 14-18 psi and it should settle at 12ish in the cold... OR wait till the cold and add air until 12 psi... That low a pressure can be bad if you have to brake and turn suddenly, I would stick to 20's at the lowest for non off road driving... 30 for pavement, but you don't need to worry about that....

I pumped up to 20psi last week It is -21 right now without the windchill. So far tires are good and seem to be running fine.
