FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/27

It’s been a calm before the storm on monday in downtown Frederic, weather is saying we are gonna get maybe 6 to 8 inches by tonight. Its been moving north east from down by Cadillac. Its 1 p.m. now and nothing so far.

The key word in there is maybe. Actually quiet a few sleds around town this morning but none have been into the shop. If we do get the snow that will be nice but temps are predicted to be mild the rest of the week. I had to run a belt up to some riders that were at the Porter Haus last nite and ran into Francis and a couple of his friends from Georgia…..that was lucky as I have to say a big thanks for buying my dinner…..Francis also was out for his birthday dinner with them and is a groomer driver and head cheese of the Ausable Valley Snowmobile Association….pics below are from out front of the Frederic Inn on sunday. Lets see if we really get dumped on. I just filled my plow truck up with gas just in case. 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 – 02/26

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/26

Sunny 25 degrees sunday at noon in Frederic. Sleds have been out and about all morning and trails looking pretty decent.

I went out for a 20 mile ride last night and have to say I was surprised how much snow was out there. Many two tracks we were on had to have almost a foot on them. Sled traffic was heaviest of the season on saturday and everyone having a good time.

Now the next question is will this hold and will we get more snow this week.

Also I still have 3 different bags here that have been lost off of sleds. If you are missing a bag off your sled give me a call. Have on arctic cat bag and one polaris hard bag and another generic blue bag. Another good nite for prime rib at the Frederic Inn too. Had to wear my snowmobile man bib to keep my shirt clean. Thanks for checking in. Pete
