CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – 01/19
Hello Sledheads! Not a lot new to post , but gotta keep Paulie and all the flatlanders up to date.. We have had a few inches of Lake Effect snows the last few days , but nothing heavy..
I groomed and trained some new guys Tuesday and Thursday this week. Good amount of people around riding this week , which has been great for us businesses needing the traffic.
Conditions vary greatly from section to section .. The bigger , main corridors remain good and the tighter, curvy areas remain in need of snow and are quite Snirty. Overall I would rate things from 5-7 out of 10.
Hoping to have our corral bonfire going tomorrow, so stop by and check it out between 12-5. .
Think Snow! Pete

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – 01/13
TRAIL BASE: 1-3″ TRAIL CONDITIONS: Good NEW SNOW LAST 24 HR: 8-12″
Hello Sledders!
Trails were rapidly improving last night as we rode a few miles! Hopefully groomer active will start later today or tomorrow. Snow coverage in our whole Cadillac trail system should be adequate now! Nice moisture to this snow really should pack in well. Forecast is calling for additional inches throughout the day.
M-55 is snow covered, but has been plowed.
We’re excited to kick off the season! Gonna keep this short, as I have to get back to plowing!! Working on clearing out around Coyote now.
Head out and enjoy this snow, and support the local businesses!
THINK SNOW!
