Gaylord Area Trail Report – Ray’s Retreat Country Inn – 02/06

Awesome is the word to describe the trail conditions. We had two different groups of riders staying with us that when I asked them how their ride and the trails were both said "Awesome!".

Groomers are keeping the trails in good condition. There haven’t been that many riders during the week. We got four inches of new snow yesterday. It just seems to get better and better.

We are booked for the weekend. Rooms available for tonight and two rooms for Thursday evening are still open. This has been a good year for riding. Everyone is getting a chance to get out and enjoy their sleds.

We hope to see you before the season is over. If you are lucky enough to be able to make it possible to come up during the week, I strongly suggest you do! During the week you can enjoy your ride so much more without all the traffic. The trails hold up well thru the entire day.
