Gaylord Bureau –
November 29, 2025
The countdown is on! The snow has been coming down and we’re patiently waiting for trails to open on December 1st. There was quite a bit of drifting when the winter storm started on Wednesday, so snow totals vary throughout our area. Most areas are reporting close to 24 inches.
If this winter is anything like last year, it’s going to be another epic one! Want to be ready? Get a free trail map delivered right to your mailbox and plan your adventure!
Check out this live feed to see trail #7, just north of Gaylord.
A few things to remember about our groomers and trails:
– Groomers are out there to help you have a better riding experience and always have the right of way.
– Please move off the trail when groomers are approaching and allow them to safely pass.
– If you approach a groomer from behind, kindly wait for the operator to signal you to pass.
– Grooming can take place at any time during the day or night, so stay alert.
– Always ride on the right side of the trail.
– Ride safe and ride sober.

It’s saturday morning Nov29 in downtown Frederic, I plowed about 7 hours yesterday and I am sure have that much more to do today. The road grader just went by and left me another 3 foot pile. So I just have to keep pecking away at it. Monday is when trails officially open. I am off to go plowing and putting a note up in the door to call me if you are at the door.
I will be down trying to get the storage lot cleaned up. Thanks for checking in and for now I am forgetting the snow chant. Thanks for checking in. Pete
