Not much writing but pictures are creative and inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
How's Crampus riding? Does it much lighter then Pugsley? Looks like wider tires would give you more fun on that terrain Smiley

It feels quite close to normal 29er. Benefits are cushion and float.
Some thoughts about Krampus:

I read your post about Crampus and think its great! Havnt even seen one in real life. I found this winter that Pugsley has its limits too, especially when snow turns mushy

Hey, I was there almost at the same time. (A day later?).

Here is a video from the outing. Couldn't figure out how to embed it.
