Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/01

Still the same, flat and hard and 20 degrees, At least the cold has let us keep what snow we do have. Sled traffic was slow on sunday but riders were out. Looks like we might luck out and get some snow starting thursday so we just have to wait and see. I think it would be great to be able to ride thru NYC on a sled. That seems to be the lucky spot to get some heavy snow……

Trails still are surprisingly white as I looked at them on the way up here today but then again corners are mostly blown out…….Same old story….

pic below I just took out the front door. I think I might need to go for a ride myself, I doubt if I could top the one from last week. I dont want to say I have given up on the snow chants but it sure doesnt seem to be doing any good. At least the restaruants are opening back up now at 25 percent capacity. Thanks for checking in. Pete

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

FROM Great Lakes Weather & Climate >> 📡 Statewide radar loop through 10 AM today (11/9) shows our two distinct snowmakers in progress.
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey

Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 01/31

Flat and hard pretty much describes the trails. It turned out to be way busier around Frederic than I was expecting yesterday and riders seemed to be happy to accept what snow we do have. Not a flake of new snow yesterday or overnight and its a nice 26 degrees this morning. I heard sleds go by my house before 8 this morning so there are some die hards out there.

Big John and the crew from Point Place Power Sports rode in here yesterday in a good size group and they were having a good time

The Swamp had my favorite coneys on the menus this weekend. Also had a call this morning from a guy who had been riding down by houghton lake yesterday and ran into many side by sides on the trail and of course was almost hit by one coming around on his side of the trail. He just wanted me to alert people to be careful. Sleds are bad enough to come up against but the side bys are bigger.

Thanks for checking in. Pete
