I plowed both Sledheads and my storage area twice and have been plowing all of it again this morning for a third time. Snow is still coming down and its great. Several trailers parked out back already. That part is all great but the next two days they are saying 30s and then back to cold. A little warmth might help it settle in and pack it in so that may be good for the base. Everyone so far this morning is excited. I am hoping to get out for a ride. I would guess we have had at least 18 inches from yesterday and today. Thanks for checking in and Please Ride Safely. Pete http://frederic-mi.com/category/trail-conditions/ FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> Finally a real great day of riding yesterday. At least thats what I heard from riders and sadly I wasnt out there myself to tell you first hand. Currently 25 degrees out and supposed to get to 40 today. That actually may help build our base as its supposed to cool back down. I wanted to ride yesterday but I ended up here in Sledheads all day between customers and plowing. Had 5 trucks and trailers parked out back and thats alot for a wednesday. Riders were certainly enjoying the conditions. It would be great to get a full month of February in. Thanks for checking in.

Pete #gaylord #snowphotos frederic-mi.com WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> There will be some melting before the weekend, but, if you are heading north the current snowpack is looking decent for many winter sport areas! Some areas of the UP that have had excessive lake effect this season are pushing 5-6ft of snow depth! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey Too bad that color is 40-50 inches, not 50-75 lol and its 1-2 ft not 3-4 ft This supposed to be current snow depth? I’m 7 miles south of pine stump and we’ve gotten well over 2 foot in the last 48 hours alone. There’s way more than 50” out there. Way more than 75 even. Oliver Griepentrog Bruce Griepentrog Brookelynn Natrop Yep WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Lake effect snow lingers today across NW flow snowbelts with generally 1-3” expected across N.L. and 2-3” across E.U. with locally higher amounts possible.
