Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 12/23
Not a flake of new snow overnight. There was light sled traffic around Frederic and I had a few in here. One guy told me the best riding they had was north of Gaylord on 7 on up to the Thirsty Sturgeon in Wolverine. There were 3 sleds at the gas station when I got here this morning and a three guys from down by the Ohio line that had unloaded out back here. They said that was there first time in this area. I would say my rating on what we have out there is maybe a hair above poor to fair. There is no grooming yet but 2 riders told me they saw a groomer panning on 76. I forgot to put a shout out yesterday from Jerry in Metamora to Cathy who was at home reading my updates. Weather is still calling for snow each day thru next Thursday, now they just need to come thru with it. Grayling Motels were pretty empty, 3 trailers at Ramada and zero at days in this morn. Thanks for checking in. Pete

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Snow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice. For northern lower, areas of drizzle will transition to a band of rain showers later tonight, perhaps ending as some snow showers / flurries. Calmer but cooler weather ahead the next couple days before the next batch of light wintry precipitation arrives Tuesday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeySnow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice.
