FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/19

Yes I am the old guy behind the counter. Been standing there for 28 years and today is the start of my 67th year I winter along with my daughters 31st birthday too. She was my birthday present back in 1993. This place was alot better idea when I was 39, but still alot of fun and meeting all the people that read my ramblings here. I started doing this blog before that word was around. Long time reader Tom Parks was the one that first told me I was a blogger. So in any case it will be a fun day talking to everyone and its going to be a busy weekend as the most trailers I have seen between the 2 hotels in grayling this season. About 30 trailers between the two places. Sled traffic was steady all day on thursday. I saw the Grayling groomer going thru town this morning and that was a good sign but it wont take long for trails to get worn. Its a nice cold6 degrees this morning. Big John & Little Billie alond with Umberdog stopped by and they were heading for the bridge this morning. So please be safe out there and enjoy the snow while it lasts. 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 UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/18

Watch out for deer, thats todays safety warning. The pics below are from last night. It happened on trail 6 out towards Moorestown. Luckily he didnt get hurt. Keep your eyes peeled. Sleds were out and about all day wednesday. I think its going to be a decent weekend. We sure could use more snow. The snow that has been groomed and run on so more snow would be nice on them. This is the most snow we have had in years. My thoughts are that its gonna be a big weekend, if you havent seent the weather for next week its not looking good. Monday, tues, wed gonna be above 32 with chances of rain showers. Who knows how long the warm up will be. It might actually help to create a better base if it does get cold enough. So once again the roller coaster game looks like its going to hit us. At least we have had one good week. Thanks for checking in. Pete
