Gaylord Area Trail Report – 12/31
Gaylord Bureau – December 30, 2024 9:00 a.m. We had an epic start to snowmobile season – the Gaylord area got hit with over 90 inches of snow to start out winter! Due to the warmer temps, trails are in poor condition and grooming has stopped. Don’t worry, there’s more snow in the forecast! Check out this live feed to see trail #7, just north of Gaylord. A few things to remember about groomers: – Groomers are out there to help you have a better riding experience and always have the right of way. Want to be ready?

I wish I could tell you we got dumped with snow but the only thing that has increased is the bare ground this week. The 2 pics below I took at Sledheads when I went up there yesterday just to see what it looked like. The lot is pretty bare and I even have a big pond in my back parking lot. The Frederic Inn is having prime rib tonight so I might just have to try that. I would actually rather ride than eat. Wishing eveyone a Happy and Safe New Year and thanks for checking in.

– If you approach a groomer from behind, kindly wait for the operator to signal you to pass.
– Grooming can take place at any time during the day or night.
– Have fun and stay safe!Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey
