We went thru L'anse on Sunday and it was pretty much bare in town but as soon as you got to the outside of town it was great! we took 15 from the south into town and 14 towards Big Bay, 15 and 14 were good then.
Same for me, I didn't have them on my truck with my old enclosed and the front was really dinged up... I wouldn't pull my new or any enclosed trailer without them.
