Gaylord Area Trail Report – 12/01

Gaylord Bureau –

December 1, 2025
10:00 a.m.

The snow is here and trails are officially open for the season! Last weekend’s winter storm dropped a heaping helping of the white stuff on us and grooming just started this morning. We’ll have an update on trail conditions for you later this afternoon. For now, count on 1+ feet of snow in most areas, with some deeper drifts. The trail base is just forming, but conditions are looking good!

If this winter is anything like last year, it’s going to be another epic one! Want to be ready? Get a free trail map delivered right to your mailbox and plan your adventure!

Check out our local webcams here.

A few things to remember about our groomers and trails:

– Groomers are out there to help you have a better riding experience and always have the right of way.
– Please move off the trail when groomers are approaching and allow them to safely pass.
– If you approach a groomer from behind, kindly wait for the operator to signal you to pass.
– Grooming can take place at any time during the day or night, so stay alert.
– Always ride on the right side of the trail.
– Ride safe and ride sober.

Sledheads of Frederic – 12/01

Trails are open, I have heard sleds out but havent seen any, We went for a ride yesterday and my ski dud stranded me, The battery went dead, but Big John pulled me back along with Timmy who was also with us. I put a new battery in it and I loaded her up for the next time That was a 20 mile ride with a 5 mile tow. Snow was fantastic with still alot of trees hanging off of trees. Still a short but great ride. I am still moving snow as there is still so much of it. Thanks for checking in. Pete

Sledheads of Frederic – 11/29

It’s saturday morning Nov29 in downtown Frederic, I plowed about 7 hours yesterday and I am sure have that much more to do today. The road grader just went by and left me another 3 foot pile. So I just have to keep pecking away at it. Monday is when trails officially open. I am off to go plowing and putting a note up in the door to call me if you are at the door.

I will be down trying to get the storage lot cleaned up. Thanks for checking in and for now I am forgetting the snow chant. Thanks for checking in. Pete
