Gaylord Bureau – February 8, 2025 9:20 AM We’ve had heavy traffic on the trails and they are currently in fair condition. Groomers are running around the clock and will continue to do so to create the best trail conditions possible. Fresh snow is on the way this weekend, too! As always, stay aware of your surroundings, ride safe and enjoy the snow! Check out this live feed to see trail #7, just north of Gaylord.

Lots of trailers at my 2 motel check points in Grayling and Gaylord is packed too. Started out at 17 degrees with crunchy snow and a system snow storm supposed to be on us by this afternoon. The Swamp has a huge crowd of sleds for early in the morning and I am sure they are there for the breakfast buffet. Also I missed the Wertz Warriors ride thru Frederic a couple days ago. They raise money each year for special olympics. Thats the first time I have missed them that I know of. Usually a group of 50 to 100 sleds riding in it. Big John is still on his u.p. power ride with Trent and spent the night at my favorite spot in Grand Marais at the Superior Hotel. Darn I need to get back up there. Thanks for checking in.
