Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 12/13
Pretty darn good would be an understatement for a first snow. Only had 8 sleds ride in the shop here yesterday but there were plenty buzzing around town all day with everyone reporting decent trails. All the pics below are from yesterday the 12th so judge for yourself. BigJohn called me about ten last night and he was still out riding, he got in 69 miles so thats a good start to the season. I still do not think this is going to last but the people that are out there now are enjoying it. When I got here there were 2 vehicles stuck in my park n ride lot and they shouldnt have pulled in there till I had a chance to plow but I got it plowed and by the time I was done with the lot there were five more truck and trailers pulling in. I dont mind people parking back there but I do take donations for plowing……. Also I have a sign on the front door saying mask required and for the most part everybody is great about it but then there are the people that think they dont need to wear one. I turned several away yesterday. The safety of my self and my customers is most important to me instead of making a sale. A couple were pretty rude like FU to me and another one called me pussy…..Really nice to see how the best in people come out……I will continue to turn people away if they think a simple thing like wearing a mask is a little to much…..Thanks for checking in and please ride safely.

SPRING UPDATE via Motor City SledHeads LLC >> Today’s update….still snow in the two pink areas but the blues are gone or about gone. Another sunny day in the UP today and if your already up here you probably we discouraged driving through Marquette but once you started climbing the elevation, your jaw was dropping. Best snowfall of this winter and it ROCKED🤘🏻 Is that map always available? One thing that was hard to find was this WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Clear skies today allowed us to view snow pack from the recent storm. Its very apparent terrain played a big role in Marquette and Baraga counties. If you look closely, you can see the sharp gradient in snowpack between the highlands, where upwards of 2 feet of snow fell, and the Lake Superior shoreline, which had little to no snow accumulate. #miweather Nice graphics SPRING UPDATE via Motor City SledHeads LLC >> Ok…here is a true update for the snow chasers. Pink area it true but it’s wet and heavy. If you don’t mind boondocking and can read a map you will have a good time. Don’t expect it to be a family trip, groom trails closed April 1. Respect private property, it’s is clearly marked. It’s going to be sunny and warm but if you are itching for one last ride, grip it and rip it. #miweatherOk…here is a true update for the snow chasers.
