Cadillac Area Trail Report – Cadillac Trails – 12/27
FROM THE CADILLAC WINTER PROMOTIONS
Sunday 4:30 p.m.–December 27, 2009
Our Trail Coordinator just returned from a ride on our system to assess the condition of the trails after the unseasonably warm temperatures and the holiday sleet storm and rains. He reports the White Pine Trail is shy of snow but smooth. Trails #35 and #358 are white and very smooth. Trails #6 and #637 are mostly smooth (only a few bumps in the thick Pines) and mostly white. Sadly, he discovered Trail #37 was loaded with moguls and frozen solid atleast as far north as Trail #637. Chances are Trail #37 has problems further north as well but he chose not to ride any further north. The condition of Trail #37 is due to a groomer scheduling conflict. The conflict has been addressed and corrected.
The Cadillac Winter Promotions Board of Directors and its many conscientious, hard-working volunteers apologize for the condition of Trail #37 as it is an embarassment to the high-standards they strive to achieve. You may be sure they will be working hard and doing they can to make Trail #37 the best it can be.
Snow Gauge: 7 inches
HAPPY HOLIDAYS. – Hi Everyone, after the refreeze we did get an inch or two yesterday and an inch or two today, with 1" to 3" more forecasted for today and tomorrow, but again this is just a forecast, I believe it when I see it. The guest that are out riding today are giving mixed reviews on the trails. Some are saying they are bumpy and others are saying that the trails are sweet. It all depends on what trail you are no. That is what is nice around here, we are in the middle of 6 different grooming clubs, if one isn’t grooming, one of the others are grooming. This is still early season riding and the ground is not completely frozen, so trail conditions can change fast with the temp. Most county roads are snow covered, so getting fuel or food shouldn’t be a problem, except right in the Village of Baldwin where it is getting a little bare. There is tons of snow in the woods, so two tracken and seasonal roads are a blast right now. (Which there are tons of). There is going to be some Ice on the trails and roads, so be careful. THE LAKES ARE NOT SAFE YET.
