Gaylord Area Trail Report – Ray’s Retreat Country Inn – 01/05
Ray’s Retreat – January 5
Today’s Trail. Old Man Winter is so darn stingy with his cold and snow. Don’t know who he’s saving it for. .. but am hoping he’ll reconsider and give us a good blast of the cold and snow that will stick around for the rest of winter.
Riders have had good rides for the past two days. There’s been alot of traffic on the trails. Everyone is so eager to enjoy winters stingy snow. There hasn’t been meltdown, but its just worn down from riders. Trail 7 out front here is looking good, and a husband/wife that just came in from their ride today said it was good most of the way heading west. They went over to Jordan Valley. They report Lakes of the North was rough. Jordan Valley was decent.
I can tell you that trail 7 closer to Gaylord is very snirty and in the valley along north Otsego the trail itself is brown. Riders are riding up along the sides to get the snow.
There is lots of snow on the two tracks, woods and fields if you know your way around and are comfortable getting off trail. (of course not on private land)
We reached 32 degrees today.
I do not know what the trails will look like or the weather into the future. I am sorry, I just don’t have those abilities – sure wish we did – I could travel around as a psychic. Maybe make some real money.
