It just keeps snowing in Gaylord! Unfortunately, the trails are in fair shape right now due to a groomer being down with a mechanical issue. Trail 4 east and west cannot be groomed until the tractor is repaired. The crew is doing their best to keep trail 7 in shape, but with only one tractor on the job, it’s a tough task to cover everything. Stay safe out there, and know that the grooming team is working hard to get the trails back to their best for you.
Check out this live feed to see trail #7, just north of Gaylord.
A few things to remember about our groomers and trails:
– Groomers are out there to help you have a better riding experience and always have the right of way. – Please move off the trail when groomers are approaching and allow them to safely pass. – 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, so stay alert. – Always ride on the right side of the trail. – Ride safe and ride sober.

Brutal winter, Got a great ride in yesterday but it was brutal, snow , 2 to 3 feet, deep. Off trail even with a long track got buried several times. Snow like this is just incredible especially with the past few years with hardly any. I started out of Sledheads and headed to the apple orchard to cut across to another trail, almost stuck right away and I was by myself. Got back to the road in a hurry cause I would still be stuck out there. Not where I wanted to spend the night. Anyways today very c old and windy, its 12:30 now and only seen a few sleds. Well almost time for me to plow again so thanks for checking in. Pics below from yesterdays ride. Thanks for checking in. Pete
