Cadillac Area Trail Report – Visit Cadillac – 12/16

December 14, 2017

Well it looks like the season has begun! We received 6″of snow on Wednesday. Groomers are out panning the trails today. We are trying to get the base established so ride with care. If you see a branch or debris, it would be a help if you move it off the side of the trail. Much easier on a sled than climbing out of the tractor. Ride safe and make some memories this season.

To better access the forest trails, you’ll want to use one of the Staging Areas below:

33 Rd Staging Area–S of M-55–approx.. 3 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Caberfae Staging Area–approx.. 12 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Boon Staging Area–park in plowed area south of Boon Grocery

Note: The porta-a-johns were removed from our staging areas today as our contracts on them expired 3-15-13.

Cadillac Area Trail Report – 12/12

DECEMBER 12
CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – Glorious morning with 4” of fresh snow at Coyote, and 8” just west of us! Ski slopes are open full time at Caberfae starting Friday, Dec.15th, and the snowmobile trails should be decent this weekend as well. Still very little base

CABERFAE PEAKS
6″ new over night and still snowing! 7.5″ last 48 and 10″ last 72 hours…. slopes reopen for the season this Friday at 10 am!

DECEMBER 8

Trails are open and legal for riding, however we only have 3″ of lake effect fluff. Groomers are standing by. Please remember in our area trail 5, the White Pine Linear Trail, the DNR asks for a minimum of 4″ so we don’t damage the asphalt. Keep praying for snow and we will keep you updated as we get the season underway.

To better access the forest trails, you’ll want to use one of the Staging Areas below:

33 Rd Staging Area–S of M-55–approx.. 3 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Caberfae Staging Area–approx.. 12 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Boon Staging Area–park in plowed area south of Boon Grocery
