Frederic – Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 02/26

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 02/26

Sunny 25 degrees sunday at noon in Frederic. Sleds have been out and about all morning and trails looking pretty decent.

I went out for a 20 mile ride last night and have to say I was surprised how much snow was out there. Many two tracks we were on had to have almost a foot on them. Sled traffic was heaviest of the season on saturday and everyone having a good time.

Now the next question is will this hold and will we get more snow this week.

Also I still have 3 different bags here that have been lost off of sleds. If you are missing a bag off your sled give me a call. Have on arctic cat bag and one polaris hard bag and another generic blue bag. Another good nite for prime rib at the Frederic Inn too. Had to wear my snowmobile man bib to keep my shirt clean. Thanks for checking in. Pete

Paradise Area Trail Report – 02/26

February 26, 2023

23 degrees this morning and snowing pretty hard. I`ve picked up a solid 2 " of lake effect fluff on my deck just from this morning. I see the weather guessers are calling for another storm to come thru late Monday. "They" are saying anywhere from 4-9". That would be cool!!! We have been runnin the groomers almost around the clock since last Friday. The traffic has been really heavy this weekend so here`s the report…..

Groomer Keith hit the Pine Stump trail #8 last night and called it good.

Groomer Mike H. did the Point trails #452 & #453 and called them really good, even the rough section on the northern side from the lack of snow turned out good.

Groomer Kevin hit the Falls trail #45 and called that good to go.
I ran the South trail #8 and will call that good except for the swamp south of town which was REALLY rough in spots. It is froze solid but the problem is so are the dirt bumps and ice and we can`t do a thing with it.

We are runnin all trails again today and will continue to run as long as we get snow. It looks like March is gonna be the month to ride this year so don`t put away the sleds!

RIDE RIGHT……..RIDE SAFE

LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/22/26
11 degrees this morning and snowing. I got a solid 3" on my deck from last night too! Just giving you a quick update before I head out da door to go grooming. I`ve got all good news so lets go.......
Groomers Mike C. and Glenn worked on our down machine all day yesterday and think they have it fixed! Seems to have been a sensor issue...darn electronics anywho. I am taking her out today and running the South trail #8. While I`m doing that, Groomer Mike C. is gonna go into the south swamp and see if he can get it packed in enough to send me thru with the drag on my way back! If all goes well we`ll have at least one lane groomed thru there and we can open the gates!!! When he gets done in there he will hit the Falls trail #45.
Groomer Keith hit the Pine Stump trails #8 & #9 yesterday and rated them as good.
More good news.....Groomer Patrick ran the Point trails #452 & #453 and rated them as good to go. The water holes on the North section are froze in now!!!
So.....everythings good to go in PANR land!! Thank you Mother Nature!!!! COME ON UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

to riding tonight, our talented with a blade (and many other things 😁) leader Chad came out earlier with the Pisten Bully to do some magic to all the corners between Newberry and Pine Stump making my life the easiest its been since we panned the second time in December 🥰😍😍😍😍
