Greetings Sledders,

Short rendition of the report tonight, I’m a little pooped out and have three consecutive 8 hour grooming days ahead of me. Not that I don’t want to share my thoughts with you on various important topics like the Lions, certain medications that are advertised on the tube that we are urged to bug the hell out of our respective doctors about, and Good Lord I can’t forget the frieking Scooter Store commercial. Good stuff all but I simply don’t want to expound on those things at the moment.

GETTING RIGHT TO IT, SANDY’S SPANISH RICE CHICKEN IS JUST ABOUT DONE

TRAILS:
We currently have the Price group in and they’ve been reporting great rides all week. The trails are indeed snirty and in my opinion not real pretty to look at but not overly harmful to those parts of the sled we consider expendable. Others like the Meyer’s and the Suelzer’s are in as well and reporting the same. Not great by any stretch but not poor either. Off trail is pristine.

GROOMING:
We are business as usual in terms of the schedule. If there’s a quantity of snow on the trails that can be bermed or moguled we will do what we do and eliminate those nasty things to the best of our ability.
Keep in mind that we are grooming the same stuff for about a month now and it’s getting pretty sugary.

WEATHER:
Nothing great to talk about here. We haven’t seen a snowflake hit the ground for a real long time and there’s nothing in the forecast save maybe a few inches over the latter part of the weekend.

Next report Monday
Ride Often and Please Be Safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls

At Fay’s Motel enjoy direct access to the Grayling Area snowmobile trails.

After starting the day out taking Sparky to the vet for surgery, we finished breakfast and finally got out on the trail! Fun.

We headed out on trail 7 down to Waters to get gassed up. Trail 7 was good, a little rough spots right along where the sledding hill is just before Waters. Then we headed back on trail 7 north to catch trail 4. Rode trail 4 over to The Settings. This entire ride on trails 7 and 4 was excellent conditions.

The trails were groomed and smooth. Only 2-3 corners were a bit sloppy. What fun!

Any part of the trail that is running along the highway, or crosses alot of roads the trail is ‘dirty/snirty’ or whatever. Nowhere did we hit any part of the trail that was down to dirt. Plenty of snow. Anywhere it was in the woods or aways off the roads it was white enough you couldn’t see exactly where the trail was.

Found more snow as we got further west, definitely more snow in Lakes of the North.

If you want to enjoy good riding, I recommend this ride. A room just came in and they continued on over to Jordan Valley and say it was great riding all over there too.

We’d love to see some of that snow that is downstate, but even without it we had a fun day on the trail.

I highly recommend enjoying the trails during the week. Give us a call if you want a good place to stay directly on the trail. If you need a sled to ride, we can help you with that too. We’re renting ski doo snowmobiles too.
