Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 01/03

FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/03

Its a very sunny 24 degrees in Frederic this morning. Its 10 a.m. and we had another few inches of light feathery lake effect snow. Things are nice and white out there but I dont like the sun. We need a good system snow. There were a few sleds out and about yesterday but with no base I feel like we need alot more snow. We have to start somewhere.

Temps are suppposed to get colder next week. People tell me I am to negative on my reports sometimes but I look at it like would I ride my sled in it. With this feathery light weight snow its pretty much worn out after the first couple sleds go by and you are right thru to the gravel. But you have to take what we have and its not much. Pics below are this morning.

Thanks for checking in. Pete

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Lingering lake effect flurries, but mainly quiet and cold tonight. Although some light lake effect flurries can’t be ruled out of the usual places on Monday…the Northwoods will have its best chance at seeing some sustained views of that orange fiery orb that many haven’t seen in what seems like weeks. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyLingering lake effect flurries, but mainly quiet and cold tonight.
