CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort >> 02/05
Another Solid Week!
Trail Conditions: Very Good; Base: 4-5″ ; New Snow last 24 Hrs: 2-3″
Temps and conditions remain very favorable for snowmobiling in the Cadillac region. Cadillac Winter Promotions and surrounding areas have repaired any damages from last weekend’s big crowds. Forecast is calling for another 3-6″ of snow today & tomorrow! Midweek riding is always the best, but I would expect this weekend’s conditions to be great as well! * We have Grammy Award Winner, Kendell Marvel performing at Coyote (inside) this Friday & Saturday nights! Tickets available online and at the door. * And there’s a Vintage Snowmobile Ride this Saturday, starting at 11AM at Lost Pines Lodge.
I groomed and trained a new driver Tuesday, and hit Trail 37 both north and south out of the Hoxeyville barn. All of our system will get hit one to two more times before the weekend.
Photo was taken Sunday afternoon during a beautiful, sunny ride up to Mesick. Thanks to Trailside Tavern for a delicious lunch! THINK SNOW & RIDE RIGHT! … Pete

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort >> 01/31
Best Conditions in Years!
Trail Conditions: Excellent; Base: 4-6″; New Snow Last 24 Hrs: 1-2″
It doesn’t get much better than this! I’ve been riding in this area for over 45 years, and can’t remember better base/conditions than we have right now. I groomed yesterday, Trail 37 south to Trail 35, and north to Trail 637. A few small bumps, but overall, fantastic conditions! Trails are firm and fast, so continue to ride safely and ride right.
Another Safety Note: When encountering a Groomer, please slow down and look for a place to stop for them to pass. By driving up closer to the Groomer, you’re making it inevitable that you’ll have to turn around completely. Groomers are trained to never pass a moving sledder, so either sleds or the Groomer will have to be stopped. Cadillac Winter Promotions has been working hard to make these trails what they are and we appreciate the many nice compliments on the trails, but most importantly we appreciate our volunteer Groomer drivers!
* We’ll have live music tonight at Coyote, $10 cover after 9pm, with Joe Stamm from Central Illinois. And both Friday and Saturday next week (Feb. 6&7th) we’ll have Kendell Marvel, out of Nashville, TN performing in the bar. Tickets on sale on our website, or at the door.
