FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/27

It’s friday morning and still quiet out there, about 25 degrees and no new snow since yesterday, thankfully what we do have is holding and the weather forcast thru next thursday shows a little new snow each day. I would rather see it say alot of new snow each day but we have to take what we can get. I finally got my first ride in yesterday, only a ten mile ride and I would rate it as o.k. I was on and off trail 7 towards graying and on two tracks in there. In the untouched spots there was 5 to 6 inches of snow. The regular trail was at least white and looked decent but alot of traffic would wear it out unless the cold helps keep it there. Pics below were of my sled when I pulled back into my shop. I looked at it and thought wow there is actually snow in my track, I should have took a couple pics when I was out in the woods. As I was leaving frederic last night I saw 4 sleds riding into the Swamp. If you ride at night at least the trails always look better than in the daytime. Now I am just left wondering if anyone will show up today or tommorow. I have heard from several people that really want to come to the frederic area to ride as they are not up for the 2 hour longer ride to the u.p. The riders or would be riders want to ride…….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 – 01/24

New Snow? Maybe, Maybe Not, So far today on tuesday its almost noon in downtown Frederic with snow falling and we are up to about a quarter inch of fluffy flakes. Weather this morning said 3 inches possible and I will believe that when I see it. If we get a little snow each day in the next 48 hours it might help us out. Thats the best I have for today. Thanks for checking in. Pete
