Cadillac Area Trail Report – 01/26
CADILLAC WINTER PROMOTIONS – Trail Condition: Good Groomer Report January 26th, 2021 WoW… What a LOT of traffic over the weekend! It was nice to see the amount of people that were out enjoying our beautiful trail system. We have been out in full force from all 3 barns. That’s 6 sections of the trail system in 1 days work. The trails are shaping up nice! We finally have some snow to work with. There are a few sections of trail that just do not get the snow accumulation, simply due to the canopy not allowing the snow to hit the ground. This can allow for icy spots, especially in the corners. Please STAY ON TRAIL !!! I have personally seen where people decided to “Boon-Dock” in someone’s hay crop! As tempting as it is, WE The RIDER Must be respectful of the Trail System as a whole, keeping the adjacent property owners INCLUDED in that respect !!! Be Safe, Have Fun. Groomer Mike CWP <> CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – 01/17 Well, people are definitely riding around in our area, but conditions vary WIDELY between areas. You can be on dirt/mud on our access trail and be in great snow on forest roads and trails from Boon to Mesick. Forest roads around Olga Lake/Bristol are still good. I have not heard of any grooming restart yet, but there will have to be some damage control done soon. Biggest thing with agitating this marginal base, is we need cold temps and mild traffic to follow, or things might get worse. I will reach out to Winter Promotions Trail Boss and confirm his thoughts on topic. We are open for carry-out and outside seating today (Sunday) and tomorrow starting at noon. Planning to close at 9pm Sunday and 8pm Monday. Thanks to those that came out for some Live Music/Food/Fires last night in corral … Fun time, considering all the circumstances this year. THINK SNOW, Pete *****Grooming Update! Guys are going out today (Sunday) to do some damage repair and then try and flatten again tomorrow (Monday) after most have gone home. We cannot overgroom right now, with these conditions, but rest assured They are being worked on as much as makes sense. Colder temps this week should help! <> To better access the forest trails, you’ll want to use one of the Staging Areas below: 33 Rd Staging Area–S of M-55–approx.. 3 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs) Caberfae Staging Area–approx.. 12 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs) Boon Staging Area–park in plowed area south of Boon Grocery Note: The porta-a-johns were removed from our staging areas today as our contracts on them expired 3-15-13. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * VIA CADILLAC WINTER PROMOTIONS <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Precip will gradually taper through the evening. Temperatures also climb above freezing through the overnight, remaining there until Thursday evening. The bad news is that gusty winds return late tonight into Thursday. Please see the attached graphics for the latest info. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Additional icing across the area appears less likely today with only a glaze of ice possible for some areas. Snow will continue to spread across the area, leading to 1-2" of wet accumulations for many south of the bridge before switching over rain. Strong winds are expected today with gusts to 40+ mph, potentially leading to more down trees and limbs from recent icing. Thunderstorms are also possible this afternoon. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyAdditional icing across the area appears less likely today with only a glaze of ice possible for some areas.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A cold night is on tap as temps fall into the teens and perhaps single digits across much of northern Michigan, especially in areas heavily impacted by the recent ice storm. This could lead to dangerous conditions for those without power or a safe source of heat. Looking ahead, it will be quieter Tuesday before another system brings the potential for another active wintry system for midweek. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyA cold night is on tap as temps fall into the teens and perhaps single digits across much of northern Michigan, especially in areas heavily impacted by the recent ice storm.

Does anyone have any information that would explain why Antrim County was excluded from the the governor’s State of Emergency? Are there any numbers showing ice accumulation for Antrim as compared to surrounding areas? <> Latest Trail Reports – Quick Links <>
