We are getting reports of about 10 inches of snow in the Waters Area. It is a start. But it doesn’t look like enough yet to get the groomers out. More snow on Saturday and that may add enough to the base to get the groomers out for the first time this year.

Sledheads of Frederic – 01/02

Its a sunny cold and crispy morning outside in Frederic, it was minus 2 earlier and even though its very sunny out its still about 8 degrees. We had maybe a half inch of very light fluffy snow overnight. Yesterday after about 3 a few sleds poked their skis out but I still think its way to early. The only good thing about those that were riding yesterday is that its good for carbide and slides sales. Even when I went home last night there were 2 sleds crossing the business loop by 72 and there is a lot less snow in Grayling then there is in Frederic. Weather and snow predictions are looking promising but we need a whole lot more to get the groomers going. So its still best to wait it out. Thanks for checking in. Pete
