Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/28
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/28 Hard to believe it went from 71 degrees yesterday to 18 degrees this wednesday morning at Lake Margrethe. It howling and blowing outside and just barely a little white out there. I was up at 5 this morning and it was just wet with slight rain out there. What a winter. Every night at 11 Camp Grayling plays taps and it was so calm last night I could hear it while I was laying in bed. So it went from very calm to very windy very fast. The pics below are from saturday in Frederic at the SWamp and Frederic Inn. The temp one came up from ten years ago. <> <> Visit Sledheads of Frederic on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> We embark on quite the stretch of weather through the weekend... and to keep it a buck-fifty with ya... it's gonna be all over the place.

Weather thru next tuesday is pretty much in upper 30s, things are icy and melting. It never fails that we have great snow and then in a few days it starts to leave us. Riding on sunday and monday was some of the best snow we have had in years. Lets see what things look like after a few days of this. Its wednesday morning about 10:30 in the morning and 35 degrees. All we can do is wait but here are some pics from riding sunday and monday. 2 pics are around my building and parking lot. Looking a little slick. Thanks for checking in. Pete... #gaylord #snowphotosfrederic-mi.com/icy-melty/ Monday was epic for us. Rode from Indian River to Cheboygan, east for lunch at the Bluffs, on to millersburg, then back. Not a mogul the whole trip and only met one sled before lunch. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Precip ends tonight, although fog remains with reduced visibility. Rain returns Thurs PM into Fri as temps moderate. However, icy secondary roads could develop, along with ice jams along rivers, and perhaps localized minor flooding. Next chance for snow is this weekend. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> Not liking the weather forcast for the rest of the week and coming weekend. Ended up closed again yesterday as there was another blessing of 6 inches of snow and we took off on another great ride of untouched snow, leaving Frederic and up towards mount Frederic and lakes of the north to starvation lake and back to Frederic. Lunch at the hide away and back to Frederic. About 150 miles of prime riding between sunday and monday. Sundays ride took us to lovells for a great pizza. Now time to get to real work today. Pics below are of the Jordan Valley groomers with a giant project on the trail. The guys were there to get the track back on the groomer. It actually came off a few days ago but they had to gather up equipment to put it back together. Wow what a huge project. A big thank you to all those volunteer guys. Thanks for checking in.
