    Well, I figure bowman lake area is full of snow for a month or so. Been on google earth looking for lower elevation places to explore. Getting the itch

    (Also need a couple more posts so I can post these dam tires for sale)

    Edit: just caught up, everyone’s headed to bowman tomorrow. I gotta work, I’m jealous. I figured it would be too much snow to get back there, eager to see photos!

    Finally cycled the suspension on the ramps near mather airport. And got my camera out for some flexible model shots measuring for the bump stops and checking rubbing, front seems good to go and the rear only rubs once the dakars went negative. Gotta love the instahoe filters for making the shots look decent

    Got shut down by "the man" at Bowman. Decided to try Eagle Lakes. We didn't get far, but it was still a good day. I'll post videos of the snow disc shenanigans a little later. Thanks, gentlemen.

    Definitely good times today. Even helped get a couple of 4runners and a pathfinder get unstuck on the way out.

    The snow was coming down real good when we left. It was awesome.

    Thanks for setting this up @CrashN'Burn. Looking forward to the next trip!
