Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 12/20
No new snow, the temps have cooled down and firmed things up. I made a big loop towards Kalkaska this morning and north of Frederic, every trail crossing I saw and trail I looked at I rate at poor. We just plain need snow. Hopefully santa will help us out and get us some snow by Christmas. The weather man says we are supposed to get some snow so that is good. Yesterday it got close to 40 so now there is grass and dirt showing in spots.. All we can do is wait and do some snow chanting. MO MO NAH CHEE NAH screamed outside at the top of your lungs helps a lot. The 4 million mark came and went on sunday well I was gone. Byron Brinley was first one in at 4,004,235 followed by Dave Klemish who came in at 4,007,773. So I am waiting to hear back from Byron and get him set up on his goodies. I got in a whole new batch of Sledheads shirts yesterday so I am well stocked up in case we ever do get snow. The new WTF Welcome to Frederic is one shirt and the All Trails Lead to Frederic has the trail map on the back. Also 2 different sledheads with Small Time Town, Big Time Fun and also The snow may melt away but the memories will last Forever……Pictures below and think Snow. Thanks for checking in.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Snow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice. For northern lower, areas of drizzle will transition to a band of rain showers later tonight, perhaps ending as some snow showers / flurries. Calmer but cooler weather ahead the next couple days before the next batch of light wintry precipitation arrives Tuesday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeySnow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice.
