January 12, 2016 – Conditions: Good

We picked up 2-3 inches overnight (part of the 6-12 inches forecasted for our area through 7 p.m. this evening.) Sure hope we have a big storm this afternoon. Actually, we will take what we get and be happy because we have a lot more snow now than we did two weeks ago. Much of our area has a foot of snow on the ground and the groomers are running as are the snowmobiles. We still have a few thin spots in the system so we will wait for more snow before upgrading our Conditions rating but sledders are having a good time and winter is finally here.

January 10, 2016 UPDATE – Conditions: Good

Just got a call from our Trail Coordinator reporting the trails are in GOOD CONDITION and the groomers will start their regular runs this evenings–FINALLY!!! It’s snowing heavily now and continues to build up.

We picked up 6 to 7 inches overnight and have been advised our winter storm warning will be in effect until this evening. It is snowing and blowing now.

There appears to be more snow coming each day until Friday. Temps have dropped as well giving us a chance to keep what we have. Our Trail Coordinator has gone for a ride and has promised to get back to me with a report when he gets back. You might want to check back later.

Sledheads of Frederic – 1/13

Perfect…….That’s what I say about the conditions right now, riders in yesterday having a great time and not a lot of them, it will be the same way today except the good part about that is I am going to be one of them, heading out here shortly with my riding partner Jim and one of his friends. Heading towards Lovells and Joburg. Had a few more inches of lake effect yesterday and it seems to have slowed up now. Weather prediction is getting better for this weekend so hoping for the best there…
