Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 01/17

It’s a bright, white, hard, icy & cold morning here in Frederic at 9 degrees and ten a.m. No new snow overnight but there is some predicted for tonight. My thoughts on the coming weekend are about the same as last weekend. People are tired of waiting, its a long MLK weekend and we have a very hard icy base. Suspension lube is an issue so you will have to work for it but if we really get a little the next couple nights that will really help.

The cold is supposed to continue thruout the weekend so we will keep what we do have. It is very icy in front of Sledheads, I was just out spreading salt out there and have my truck sideways across the front to make sure nobody comes flying thru and slides, walk carefully if you are coming in. I am doing my best with the salt out there. Snow chanting is most welcome and because we haven’t had the joy of a real snowfall yet this season

I will once again post a link to my Big Chief Indian Pete video here Frederican Snow Chant I find it hard to believe that video is now ten years old…..PIcs below I took outside this morning. Thanks for checking in. Pete

Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 01/12

It’s a calm and quiet Saturday morning in downtown Frederic, 21 degrees and no new snow. Riders that were in yesterday were saying just as I predicted with hard and icy trails and you need to get to the sides to get adequate lubrication on your slides. I saw one trailer unloading this morning at the parking lot just west of Grayling and a few sleds thru Frederic already this morning when I first got here about 8:30 Trailer count at Days Inn in Grayling this morning was 4 and 9 at the Ramada.

I heard that it was packed up at Starvation Lake yesterday and also a story of a girl riding down the hill behind the bar who was on a rental sled, she apparently nailed the throttle instead of the brake and missed some people but hit some sleds. I cant believe anyone would send rental sleds out on icy conditions…….So as yesterday I think it will be the same thing around Frederic with sleds coming thru because everyone is just tired of waiting and just trying to get a ride in.

Pics below are of trail 7 north of the high school that I took on the way up here, one looking east and one west. Do some snow chanting and think snow (really hard) Thanks for checking in. Pete
