Grayling Trail Report – Fay’s Motel – 03/02

Greetings Sledders,

Over is over,period. This has been the worst non-winter that we’ve seen in the ten years that we’ve been here in Grayling. It started out looking like a promising one then went to hell in a hand bag and never recovered as you well know.

Here’s a few numbers to share with you as a re-cap, we groomed 4570 miles that was accomplished with 640 volunteer man hours and spent 94 hours fixing stuff and the maint. hours are probably light as I don’t always account for a half hour here and there. Last year we groomed over 8000 miles with 1200 man hours consumed.

I must hand it to our guys and commend them for a job well done given what they’ve had to work with. GREAT JOB GUYS IN DOING WHAT YOU’RE NOT GETTING PAID TO DO !!!!

It is our hope that we have accurately communicated trail conditions to you via the internet and telephone during these snow starved times. It’s always difficult to report conditions when snowfall is skimpy as one person’s decent ride can be another’s worst nightmare.

In closing, thanks to all of you that chose Fay’s Motel as your destination this season, we appreciate your patronage more than you will ever realize.

Please Be Safe at whatever it is that you do in the off season, Keith, Sandy and The Girls

At Fay’s Motel enjoy direct access to the Grayling Area snowmobile trails.

Cadillac Area Trail Report – Cadillac Trails – 03/02

FROM THE CADILLAC WINTER PROMOTIONS
Tuesday–March 2, 2010

The latest word from our Trail Coordinator:

"The warm temps. and sun are taking their tolls on the trails. The snow is melting FAST. The trails in and out of the towns and the RR trails are almost non-ridable. If you were to trailer out to the parking lots, you will find the wide forest and county seasonal roads still have some good snow cover, but they are getting very thin in the corners. The tight-twisty trails in the wooded areas are very brown, and less snow covered every day. There is still a lot of great riding, you just to have to go looking for it.

Due to the current conditions, and the forecast of warmer temps to come, Winter Promotions have parked our groomers again.

When we get that March snow storm that we get every year, DON’T hesitate, call in sick and jump on your sled. The snow from these March storms generally only lasts for a day or 2!!"
