Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/12
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/12 This is the year winter didnt show. Coming at you from downtown Frederic on a 37 degree and cloudy monday. Seeing some slight predictions of a little snow later in the week but if we do get some I stick to the story that it needs to be a bunch and it will only be good for those first ones on it. On the other hand Side bys and atv.s were out a bit from what I hear. Pic below is Jason Mccune and his group riding the trails on their atv/s around Frederic this weekend. I was a bit more comfy in the sun down south and should have stayed there. I think I have a total of about 200 miles in for the season. I wish I had something better to say. Think snow and MO MO NAH CHEE CHEE NAH….maybe for next season. Thanks for checking in.

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.

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
