Gaylord Area Trail Report – VisitGaylord.com – 12/06
Well here we are up to Dec 6 and we had a little bit of white fall on us over night. Well the weather says we are in a winter advisory mode we only have a slight dusting of lake effect snow on the ground. The pic below was at the trail head parking lot just west of Grayling from this morning. We are still a long ways off from any riding around here. Weather is calling for more snow north of us. So far I am not aware of any riding anywhere. I am keeping an ear out and will keep waiting on the real snow to hit us. Well the lake effect looks nice it takes an awful lot to add up to anything. With all the rain and wind we had in the past couple of days if it would have been cold enough we would have 3 feet now….but our luck just isn’t that good. Also for any of you that may be wanting to leave your sleds up north I have one storage unit that is big enough for 2 sleds available. Its a 10 x 12 unit. Still lots of room for outside trailer parking in our fenced and secure Sledheads Storage area too. Thanks for checking in. Pete

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Arctic cold and snow return to northern Michigan Friday and Saturday. Gusty winds are also likely as the cold air moves in, resulting in areas of blowing snow and reduced visibility. If traveling during this time, be prepared for hazardous conditions in some areas. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyArctic cold and snow return to northern Michigan Friday and Saturday.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Feb 4, 2026, 3am…Nuisance flurries hang on today, but the clipper parade returns starting Thursday, with a reinforcing shot of arctic air Friday that will result in some travel impacts as temperatures fall from near freezing early to the teens by afternoon with more snow showers and blustery conditions. Colder Saturday, with a few flurries around again, and then, you guessed it, more snow chances going into early next week…though signals point toward a warming trend during this period as well. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyFeb 4, 2026, 3am…Nuisance flurries hang on today, but the clipper parade returns starting Thursday, with a reinforcing shot of arctic air Friday that will result in some travel impacts as temperatures fall from near freezing early to the teens by afternoon with more snow showers and blustery conditions.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> 2/3/26, 3am...A cooler day today with lingering north flow lake effect snow showers, especially near and west of Traverse City. Highs struggle to escape the teens. A quiet and warmer day Wednesday…before the next system approaches for Thursday, bringing a return of snow. Then, a more potent cold front looks to drop in early Friday, bringing much colder temperatures Friday afternoon and into the weekend. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey2/3/26, 3am...A cooler day today with lingering north flow lake effect snow showers, especially near and west of Traverse City.

JORDAN VALLEY AREA UPDATE via Jordan Valley Trails Council >> Monday update:
Pisten Bully is still down on trail 4/76. NDA ordered Wednesday showed up Saturday afternoon. Crew got out there Sunday but found more damage and parts were ordered today.
If you happen to find this boogie wheel between Alba and trail 76 north of Elmira please notify us, we need to get our hands on it. New part is on order and scheduled to be in tomorrow.
If all goes as planned trails will be back in shape by end of the week.
Huge thank you to Mike, Kevin, Phil, Rich and Craig for trying to get repairs made in timely fashion. Nothing our volunteers can do about shipping delays or parts availability. #jordanvalley #gaylord #petoskey
