Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/11
It’s still cold and very few flakes around. Trails are still pretty decent, I rode 36 miles yesterday mostly around Lake Margrethe and behind camp grayling. I even found spots that were 8 to ten inches of untouched snow. All in all a really good 2.5 hour ride. My buddy Big John is riding up to the bridge today and I hear north of gaylord has had much better snow. The system snow predicted for friday has now dissapeared. Also exciting news for downtown Frederic with the opening this morning of A Better Place Bakery & Cafe. They are located just south of the Frederic Inn and next to the post office. I stopped and bought some scones and a big fat blue berry muffin. So next time you are up here stop in and check them out. Ironically I am wearing my shirt that says The Polar Vortex is our friend….I just wish our friend would drop some snow on us. 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.
