Michigan Trail Report


Grayling Trail Report – Fay’s Motel – 01/31

Greetings Sledders,

Had to wait for something to happen weather wise before posting this.

Finally changed over to snow sometime last night and as of this morning we have 3-4" of fluffy Lake Effect on the ground with predictions of 4" today and 7" tonight. Two things to keep in mind about this news, one is that it is based on predictions regarding LE and two it is fluffy and doesn’t bare much in the way of cushion between you and what’s left of the base.

Base is the next issue. Took a couple of road trips yesterday to check out the crossings and saw a mixed bag of conditions ranging from short bare spots to slushy stretches and numerous water holes. The bare spots will heal provided we get what is forecast. The wet areas and holes will take some time even as temps continue to drop.

If we get the snow predicted I would rate the trails at no better than fair due to the base issues but things should continue to improve as time goes on.

Ride Often and Please Be Safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls
