Slide cover for snowy weather
I have a new ORV 23DBS with a single slide. I plan to go skiing and camp overnight. Do I need a slide cover for the snow? Seems logical but... Anyway, is it something I can install or dealer does?

Since you said that you "plan" to camp up on the ski hill, you haven't really done it yet? Is that correct?
The reference to the mattress heating pad said it was a 12 volt heater. Your plug ins are all 120 so the poster must have a way to hook into the 12V system in the trailer.
If your tanks are heated by the furnace as mine are the only way to keep them from freezing is to run the furnace. The furnace fan draws a lot of current and the heating pads will draw down the batteries too. I can't see spending a couple of days in mid 20 degree weather without a generator to maintain your batteries.
If you live close to the hill, you probably can get there before the tanks and water lines freeze up. You can also run with your furnace on. There is a huge ongoing debate about running with your propane on so that will be up to you. I have done it for many years but only to keep my fridge running. I have never used the furnace but haven't traveled in freezing temperatures either.
