Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/21
Waiting for more snow, and like a broken record not a new flake yesterday or last night. Calm and quiet in Frederic this morning. Sled traffic was actually slower in town on saturday than on friday where it was way busier. Motels were still full with trailers this morning with 11 at the Days Inn and 34 at the Ramada. I did have someone in for 2 trail permits this morning. Things are pretty hard and flat out there. Trail conditions were all over the place yesterday with riders reporting any type of condition you could think of from poor to great. I wish I had better things to tell. Pics below are riders that stopped by here yesterday. I am sure there will be some people stopping by today on their way back from the U.P. which help my day pass a bit easier. Thanks for checking in.

*Additionally, strong winds in areas that received heavy icing will exacerbate tree damage and infrastructural impacts*
Cold temperatures filter in to northern Michigan behind the major winter storm. Consequently, for those without power, dangerously cold temperatures are expected this afternoon through Tuesday night. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey 
They report that tree damage has led to ~87% of the county's residents losing power as of this morning (3/16). One webcam that was operational on the east side of the lake displays ice-encrusted trees along the shoreline. Winds today could unfortunately exacerbate the power outage situation. #miweather #gaylordThe Houghton Lake and Roscommon County areas have been severely hit by freezing rain in the past 24 hrs, leading to a declaration of a local state of emergency by the Roscommon County Board.
