Hello- groomers have been out and tractor is repaired . Cadillac Winter Promotions volunteer groomers are out in full force and getting trails in shape for a busy weekend. Expecting big crowds again this weekend and weather should be ideal.
I will have the corral open and serving drinks on Saturday , along with the bonfire burning . Come out and say hi !
We have a pop-up concert in the bar Saturday night , with Michigan native and Nashville musician Myron Elkins performing . There is no door cover , but asking for a Honor Cover for Myron .. It is always special when a national act comes into the bar and shares his/her talent . You will want to catch this show , starting at 9 PM in the bar.
THINK SNOW & RIDE RIGHT ! Please plan ahead when seeing groomers and look for an area to pull off trail. It is deep , so plan accordingly.

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort >> We brought the older club groomer down from Mesick, to help out with the South routes. And the Boon tractor is working as hard as it can to keep up with the Northern & Central sections. With two of our four groomers down, we're doing the best we can. South, Central and Northern sections should all get hit before noon on Saturday. We cannot groom when temps are over 30 degrees. #cadillac#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less

Hello- Very cold temps in low single digits tonight , but it keeps snowing and blowing .. Between grooming and plowing , I seem to be in one machine or the other quite often .. Trying to get a little sled time in as well.
Very busy Presidents weekend ends today .. Trails got a little beat up over the weekend , with HEAVY traffic and also groomer difficulties. We had one of our groomers get stuck badly , and our “loaner “ tractor out of Boon broke down.. But as always , our volunteers got together and pulled out the stuck unit and brought our club owned groomer out of retirement to fill the void. Special thanks to all those guys who spent many hours dealing with these issues.
From all of our local businesses , Thank You to the many sledders who came to the Cadillac area to share their hard earned money with many of us. Traffic on Saturday was reminiscent of 10-20 yrs ago , when snows like this season were a little more frequent. People seemed so happy to have this amazing snow to play in. Seeing many people getting stuck off- trail when moving for groomers , so be wise . Also , way too many vehicles are following GPS and ending up in middle of trails system and halting groomers.. Spread the word to these “flatlanders” to not go on roads if they see orange trail markers..
