CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – 02/18
Pete’s Trail Report from 2/17 “Good -Very Good” conditions
“Hello — Just got back from grooming! I hit Trail 6 East & West, as well as 677, 687 around Caberfae. By far the best conditions I’ve groomed yet this year, with the only Snirt being small areas of 6 West, west of Caberfae Rd. Not many riders out today, which makes for easier grooming…
Lots of Thumbs UP from the few riders I did see. Reminder to please pull off trail and stop when seeing a groomer, as we are not supposed to pass any moving sleds. Temps are getting back to more normal range in the coming week. Come up and enjoy some mid-week riding. THINK SNOW! Pete”
🌀 We will have live music again this Saturday night from 6-8pm!
🌀 This video taken Friday in Slagle Township!

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE vi Coyote Crossing Resort >> About half of our system is passible for sleds at this time, but many obstacles and dangerous sections remain. Fortunately, the sledding season is wrapping up in this area, since we're nearing the end of March. Not just warm upcoming temps are working against us, but the damage to the trail system from this last storm is more than this volunteer group can handle. #cadillac#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
