Gaylord Area - Conditions: Good Updated: 02 / 11 By: DerMiner's Parkside Resort
Trail Report: Yesterday the trails in Otsego County were in good condition but a little fast due to the limited amount of snow we have had in the past few weeks. Today, I am happy to report that the South Gaylord (trail #7 area) had a few inches of snow last night, and it's been snowing at a steady to heavy fall for much of the day. I haven't seen the groomer yet today but he usually comes by twice a day. Conditions should be great for snowmobiling this weekend but expect it to be busy. We are expecting colder than normal temperatures for Saturday & Sunday so bundle up, and have fun! --- Complete Report --- More Report Links

Latest Snow: 566684210161641 -- Trail Report: Riders have been returning tonight reporting they have had good rides. All very happy with the riding. We are under a winter storm warning overnight... it is coming down heavy right now. Several inches are expected. This will definitely give everyone that beautiful white fresh cover to blow in their faces for tomorrow's riding. New owners will be at Rays Retreat Country Inn tomorrow. Just want to let all of our readers know how much we have appreciated your input ... sometimes negative, but mostly positive. We wish we would be able to say good bye personally to all our guests that became friends thru the years. Winter and snowmobilers have been our favorite season here at Rays Retreat. Will definitely miss it. We wish everyone a new year of good health and happy times. --- Complete Report --- More Report Links

Latest Snow: #gaylord -- Trail Report: 122624984478774 Gaylord Bureau - <> http://www.gaylordmichigan.net/snowmobile-trail-report-114/ <> Sledheads of Frederic - 03/25 I was excited to see about 5 inches of new snow yesterday and decided I would get my sled out and go for a ride. There were several trees down on trail 7 from Frederic to Grayling but I made it around those with no issues. Where trail 7 comes to M72 by Tinkers I crossed hoping the gate would not be closed already this season and as luck would have it, it was open. The trail goes straight in and then a turn to the left. There are 3 power settings on my ski doo and I keep it in low most of the time. I saw water ahead and didnt figure it was an issue as I have done water skipping many times with no issues. Well after the hard left in the trail the water got deeper and I had no power and no time to switch it up 2 notches to performance mode. My belt got wet and that was it and there I was in the middle of the swamp. I figured it would be an all day ordeal but thankfully I called a friend who was there shortly with a couple of straps. He was smart enough to bring waders so I only got wet to the top of my boots. He pulled the sled to high ground where we let the water drain and then it fired right up. Still one more mud hole to cross but I had plenty of power and skipped right across. A big thanks to Jack for the rescue and I went home and had lunch and then rode back to Frederic. I still was the only tracks on the trail both ways from Frederic to Grayling. Pics below are from my ride and there are others in video on my Sledheads facebook page. All in all a great 40 mile late season ride along with a good story and memory. Thanks for checking in. Still six days of the sled season left.
