Michigan Trail Report


Grayling Trail Report – Fay’s Motel – 12/22

Greetings Sledders,

Quick update. We got about 4" last night and I felt that it was enough to let the groomers go do their thing. We have however a situation that is less than ideal. Up until this morning there wasn’t enough snow left to pan or groom but there was enough to support sled traffic which resulted in some pretty rough trail segments. Ordinarily when we have plenty of snow to work with this isn’t an issue, cut the moguls down and make the trail flat. But we are dealing with early season conditions with little in the way of snow to work with and cutting the moguls down means there is going to be some dirt and leaves mixed in with the snow that we do have.

We really don’t have a choice in the matter. If we leave the trails rough while we are waiting for more snow and the moguls are subjected to next week’s sub zero nighttime lows and single digit highs they will freeze solid and we will then be trying to rid ourselves of these frozen roller coasters for the rest of the season.

So if you are on our trails in the immediate future and you see dirt and leaves mixed in it’s not because of some lunatic groomer jockey that’s gone off his rails and decided to see how much damage he could do to the trail, the conditions are a result of having no alternative

This is short term ugliness that will go away with new snow so please bare with us.

The trails are currently poor to fair.

Have a great holiday everyone.
Ride Often and Please Be safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls
