Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 03/24
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 03/24 Well a little surprise this morning in Grayling with a few inches of wet and heavy snow on the bottom and a little lake effect on the top. There is still ice on Lake Margrethe but there are places where the ice is opening up. I am still at home this morning so I havent actually drove in this snow. It looks nice out there and I would bet someone will ride in this but it will be right down to the dirt. Its supposed to go to about 35 today. Still 7 more days of this sled season. Took the 2 pics below out my front door. Thanks for checking in. Pete <> FREDERIC AREA SPRING RIDING via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> I put this video together from my ride today unfortunately it’s not in the right order because I’m not real sure how to do that shows where I was stuck and getting pulled out then I skipped the water hole after I had my power setting raised on my sled as I was riding, I came into it unexpectedly, not knowing there was that much water there And just didn’t have enough power to get through it.. <> <> Visit Sledheads of Frederic on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Accumulating snow and possible wintry mix will impact northern Michigan through Tuesday.

FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> A great 17 degree morning in Frederic. been a steady flow of sleds thru this morning but still kind of quiet. Typically super bowl weekend people start heading home which is great for the riders that stay around. 17 degrees is a perfect riding temp. Have had several large groups in this morning which is nice. Still reports of both good trails and rough trails. Not sure that I like the forcast for next week as it says its gonna warm up a little bit. Still many riders have stopped in that haventt been here in years. Good to see old timers.

A fantastic trip 675 miles and 29.3 hours on my machine. Yesterday morning we headed out from Curtis to St Ignace where we took the ice bridge to the island andhad lunch there and ride around the island. They are doing alot of work over there including a huge project on the grand hotel. After riding back over to ignace we called for the shuttle to take us to the drop off point in Mackinaw City and it was another 3.5 hour ride home from there.. Dunstin and Ronald headed out last night to go back to Iowa but only made it to Grand Rapids as it was to slick out. It was a bit dirizzly ice so it was slow going getting here. We were at Kings fish market in Moran and ran into to guys that had been following our trip so that was a surprise. Pretty quiet in Frederic this morning and the snow is a bit squishy. Its supposed to cool down for the weekend and right now at 10 a..m on friday its 29 degrees. Been out plowing around the building here and I would say we had about 4 new inches during the week so I timed it just right for not being around here. Thanks for checking in.
