Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 03/16
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 03/16 Well its a quiet and dry morning in downtown Frederic, more and more dirt showing thru each day and rain is supposed to be coming. I did see 2 sleds at the Swamp yesterday and the day before, I am thinking it was the same people. Still nothing I want to dry skid in. So thats it for trails here but the 3 old guys to alaska are tough and still rolling. Pic below I borrrowed from one of their updates, take a good close look at the supplies they are all hauling with them. Today they are in Stony Rapids Saskatchewan. Look that up on the map and see how far north they are up there. What an adventure. All 3 of them are riding arctic cat norsemens so at least they can exchange parts if they need . With all the extra gas they are hauling that has to be alot of weight. A couple nights ago they were camped out so they are prepared for most anything. Thats about it for today. Thanks for checking in. U.P. may get hit with some snow in the next couple of days so that would be nice for them.

Riders stopping in for goodies and to say hi. I would say this has been the busiest day of the season with the amount of sleds that have been around. Dinner last nite at the Frederic Inn was great and you can see the five of us showing off our meat. I was in deep in sleep way before midnite. Also a shout out to the Hummell crew from Atlanta Georgia that came in to ride with their brother Francis Hummell who also is a local groomer driver for the Grayling club. #gaylord #snowphotos frederic-mi.com WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Accumulating lake effect snow will continue tonight for parts of eastern upper and the NW lower snowbelt.
