Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 12/31

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 12/31

Deadsville, thats what it is like around both Grayling and Frederic, There is no one around, drove thru motel parking lots for the heck of it for the first time this season, only 4 cars at Days Inn and about 20 at the Ramada in Grayling with no trailers either. Also kind of forgot about us not having Motel 72 out by Tinkers Junction this year as it burned down this summer. Doesnt matter anyways cause we need snow. I was here at Sledheads all day yesterday, saw one sled and that was a nieghborhood kid. All pics taken this friday morning about 9. It was a misty drizzle when I left home, maybe storm may hit us tommorow afternoon……If you come by this weekend stop by and see if I am awake, I had a nice comfy chair delivered yesterday to sit in by my firelplace, its a little big but people can just squeeze by it till I get off the handi cap list…..Oh & Happyt New Years eve too, 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 – 12/27

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 12/27

Its looking a little more white, out there . Its now 4:15 p.m here at Lake Margrethe, we have had a total of about 2 inches of snow since last night. Still not enough to ride on but we have to start somewhere. Its still in the 30s out there right now. I was up in Frederic around noon and the same amount snow there too. Remember yesterday was all dirt and no snow. I did see a couple side bys over at the swamp sunday afternoon but we want to see sleds. The 2 pics below I took about noon in Frederic and my friend Tim is riding up in Newberry and things look pretty decent today there, Last night he started out at the trailhead north of Newberry on 446. I like that starting point in Newberry cause you miss the big swamp there and its a decent parking lot. He rode up to Pine Stump today and pics are below too. Maybe by this weekend we can start getting some riding in here but I wouldnt expect great conditions. I am going to try to be open all the time starting thursday even though I have another doctor appt thursday afternoon. Thanks for checking in. Pete
