FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/12
Sunday morning same old report. Just a few flakes fell yesterday and light snow in the air this morning. Same trailer count at the 2 hotels in Grayling. Zero at the Days Inn and 3 at the Ramada. There were a fair amount of sleds into Frederic yesterday and the pic below was at the Swamp. Most riders had the same thoughts that it was thinner as you came into Frederic and better to the west and north. Scattered snow thruout the week coming in the predictions so lets see what happens this coming week and maybe we will get a good MLK weekend. Funny how I talked about yesterday people that I have met over the years that were regulars. One guy came in and said he hadnt been in for 20 years since he was a kid. And another old timer Jim that I hadnt seen in years but instantly I recognized him when he walked in. The most and greatest one that came in was my friend Wayne who is a cancer survivor and while when he walked in it took me a second to recognize him it was a great feeling when I did. His sledding days are done but he still has the spirit. Thanks for checking in. Pete
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A wintry mix returns to northern Michigan on Thursday before switching over to rain for most areas Thursday night as temperatures look to warm considerably through the evening – potentially into the 50s and low 60s by midnight. This may help limit any impacts from potential icing earlier in the day. #miweather #gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskey... See MoreSee Less
FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> That's a Wrap on the 25-26 Sled Season - Well here we are up to March 31, 2026 and the end of the season with more snow that we have seen in a long , long time. Still alot to melt off here in Frederic, Piles were huge and so very rock hard its still gonna take them a while to melt down. The good thing about all the snow was that it spread the riders out all thru the state which made for a much safer season. Even with that there were still 12 deaths with only 4 in the lower and the rest in the u.p. In looking at the sledview camera north of Gayord the trail is still covered with snow... #gaylord#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
