we got a nice surprise storm last night. The mountain got about 9", Emerald is my back yard and up about 500' there was a good 4". I went out a little to late, by 11, the temps were 28 in the sun and the snow was greasy on the steeper sections but it was still a great ride and I got to break trail on a flowy trail called Larrys. Got to test out the Bontrager Old Man Winter Pants and Boots. Awesome combo. the boots are fantastic and they integrate well with the Pants. I'll write more later. The first pic is of a memorial that was installed this summer for a local guy who was instrumental in developing the trail system on Emerald and elsewhere.

looks great @Ron!
And the number one rule for most new fatbikers in the snow

Air down!
0-5psi is the typical pressure range for decent sized fatbike tires in anything other than super hardpack.

I was way down... so far down, my rear flatted :). I rode it flat the last 2 miles. I went through my CO2 cartridge. the front was about 2psi.
