FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 12/23

It’s a slightly snowy monday morning in downtown Frederic. Its 10:45 a.m. and we have about an inch of new snow this morning. Nothing fell overnight. There was barely any sled traffic both saturday and sunday around Frederic. They say we are going to get a few inches today but there is still forcasts of warmer temps coming. I was hoping for a 3 or 4 inch thick snow by about noon so I could go out and try to take a ride. Pic out front here was about a half hour ago. Looks nice and white. brook Smith & his wife sent me a pic of his Sleheads hat in Cabo which sounds like a good idea to me too. The pic with the 2 trucks parked out back yesterday I would just like to point out if you park out back and I am not around start by parking with your rig facing either north of south and if you are first one in park as far to the east as you can so we can fit as many rigs back there as possible. I talked to the guys in the closer truck and they said they had a decent ride so they were happy. Lets see if Santa will help us out at all this week. 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 – 12/21

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 12/21

Its the first day of WINTER. We had a light dusting overnight but in both Grayling and Frederic I could still see my foot prints from yesterday. At least its a cold 13 degrees this morninig and the ground has hardened up. I only had 2 sleds come in here yesterday and saw one sled pulling into the swamp about 5:30 when I left. Only 2 trailers at the motels this morning in Grayling and they were both warming up their trucks and heading to the u.p. so I am not expecting to see to much traffic tommorow. Weather forcasts have change a little bit for colder temps the next couple of days so that is good but I dont like the extended for between Christmas and New years. Maybe Santa will surprise us but hey its not any different than the last few years. We have to make the best of what we have or just stay put. Pics below are the 2 guys that rode in yesterday morning and also I am selling my side by with the Boss plow on it. Its a 2006 Polaris 500, 4wd, hydraulic 3 way Boss plow. $8500. Give me a call if you are interested. Thanks for checking in. Pete
