Cadillac Area Trail Report – 01/17
CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort >> 01/17 New Snow Last 24 hrs: 4-5″ Trails range from fair-good! Thin stretch between Boon and Mesick but lots of real good stretches on the trail. Railroad grade to Thompsonville is fair. Gets better the further north you get. Expecting busy traffic since it’s “free riding” weekend and MLK. We’ll have a bonfire going in the Coyote Corral on Saturday with drinks for sale outside! Compared to last year, trails are a 10- haha! This trail report is from Lewis Finch who was out riding today! – THINK SNOW! Hello- Got 3-4” in last day with some rain/snow mix and then fresh snow on top … there likely will be some spot grooming done, but don’t want to disturb the base too much yet … When dirt gets mixed in with the snow, we lose the rigidity of the ice base. Several people were riding this past weekend, but decent conditions were very localized from Coyote up to Mesick. Check out Coyote webcam for current pictures. Cold temps and some snow are in the forecast… THINK SNOW! Pete Coyote cabins are still available right now for this coming weekend … check online for booking! https://coyotecrossingresort.com/be-safe/ <> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> After a chilly start to the morning, temperatures will climb decently on this Sunday. Skies will be partly to mostly sunny. Clouds increase tonight, and snow is likely late tonight into Monday morning. Accumulations of 1 to 2 inches are likely in eastern upper and northwest lower Michigan, with an inch or less in northern lower Michigan. The midweek period looks quiet again, though with colder temperatures, especially Tuesday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyAfter a chilly start to the morning, temperatures will climb decently on this Sunday.

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. #cadillac #snowphotos
