FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic – 01/31
It’s 10:30 on a sunny 27 degree friday morning in downtown Frederic. I got here just after nine and there were about 15 or so sleds lined up at the swamp heading out for a pretty large group ride. Yesterday it was up to 41 and gave us more melting and settling than I would like to see but things have held up pretty well. Not sure what today is going to do. Wednesday things were so perfect and thursday was good too. Next system snow isnt till next wednesday. Both days inn in grayling and Ramada only had 2 trailers each at them. So same old blah, blah, blah. You have to take what we get and make the best of it. Yesterday a couple brought in a new saddle bag off of a 2025 ski doo and it did have a name in it. I posted it on my Sledheads facebook page and in 20 minutes he came walking in the door. Jeff Bartell was the guy and he would love to talk to the couple that turned it in so if they read this please call me and I will put you in touch with him. Also when Jeff came in with his group of guys I told him he had to identify the odd thing that was in the bag. His whole crew laughed as they knew what it was and there is a pic below of him holding it. He was very happy to get it back.Thats about it for today so lets hope we hold the snow we have. Thanks for checking in. Pete <>

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> After the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset. This will lead to any wetness re-freezing on area roadways, which could lead to icy roadways and/or black ice formation tonight through Friday morning. Back roads, which became slushy today will refreeze as well, leading to complicated driving conditions. Finally, sidewalks and parking lots could also become hazardous to navigate. #miweather #gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeyAfter the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset.

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.
