Practise your cross wind technique before you go.

Amen:
I was relatively current, having flown from Anchorage to St.
George via Seattle in my 170 a few years ago when I tried to
land at St. George in a roaring crosswind. I managed to
scare myself and my passengers and we retreated to Mesquite,
NV, a few miles to the west. My my did those runway lights
jump quickly into view. I thought I was better than that.
Make sure you have to gas to divert if you are a wimp like me.
