FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/18
Watch out for deer, thats todays safety warning. The pics below are from last night. It happened on trail 6 out towards Moorestown. Luckily he didnt get hurt. Keep your eyes peeled. Sleds were out and about all day wednesday. I think its going to be a decent weekend. We sure could use more snow. The snow that has been groomed and run on so more snow would be nice on them. This is the most snow we have had in years. My thoughts are that its gonna be a big weekend, if you havent seent the weather for next week its not looking good. Monday, tues, wed gonna be above 32 with chances of rain showers. Who knows how long the warm up will be. It might actually help to create a better base if it does get cold enough. So once again the roller coaster game looks like its going to hit us. At least we have had one good week. Thanks for checking in. Pete

FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> STAY OFF THE ICE & LAKES Once again 2 more sledders fell thru and drowned. That makes 4 this season, the first 2 were just walking on the ice and went thru and these next 2 were riding. Please be aware of where you are at. We had about 2 inches of new fluffy overnight again. Riders that were in yesterday were having a good time and the snow is holding pretty good. Lets see how this week goes. They are callilng for warmer temps later in the week. Thanks for checking in. Pete... #gaylord... See MoreSee Less

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Accumulating lake effect snow continues across northern Michigan today into Sunday. Gusty winds will lead to blowing and drifting snow, leading to quick drops in visibility – especially across open areas. Wind chills look to stay below zero today into tonight. Cold temperatures may also lead to freezing of wet roads this morning, contributing to potentially hazardous travel conditions for the first half of the weekend. #miweather #gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeyAccumulating lake effect snow continues across northern Michigan today into Sunday.

FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> Friday riders were out but certainly no big crowds, light sled traffic. I see 6 sleds over at the swamp right now and am sure they are there for the breakfast buffet. My gut feeling is its gonna be a slow saturday but conditions are still better than we have seen in years. Had dinner at the Frederic Inn last night and 3 of us had the prime rib and it was great as usual. Left overs for lunch today. Pics below are all from yesterday and last night.
