Wow! ~ 3000 pictures on Saturday – Record!

We had approximately 3000 pictures taken by the camera on Saturday. This equates to 1000-1250 sled sightings! I have not checked all the pictures yet, so some may be of people stopping by, but none the less, it is the most the camera has taken in one day! Thanks!

Glad everyone got to ride. Sounds like a warm up coming next week. Yuck!

Update: Just checked through the pictures and most were of snowmobiles going by. Definitely a record day!

January 31 Update – Go Away Warm & Rain!

Well, if you did not get your riding in the past few days, you may have to wait.  It looks like it could get into the 40′s today in Gaylord.  The best we can hope for is no rain.  Tomorrow it starts to cool off again, if you can call low 30′s “cool”.

The trail is very nice right now, let’s just hope it holds up!

Sled Count estimate for Monday, January 30th: 30

January 29th Weekend Review

Hi All,

Well, if you were here, or are here now, you know of the awesome snow we got in Gaylord Saturday and Sunday!  Probably a foot or more of nice new fluff!  On the depth gage, we are at about a foot and a half.  It is supposed to be 40 degrees and rainy on Tuesday.  We sure don’t need that!  If you want to ride, you might consider coming up for a ride on Monday.

Saturday January 28 sled count estimate: 350

January 28 Update

The trail has held up through the warm spell. If temperatures stay in the 20′s this weekend the riding will be okay. Come get your riding in. You never know with this crazy winter if this will be the last riding weekend!

Friday January 27 sled count estimate: 125

January 25 Update – Snow is back! :)

Wow!  What an up and down winter for snow!  In less than 4 days time we went from perfect, to dirt back to decent!  The groomer made a north and south pass last night so that shows there is plenty of snow to ride on.  It might not be like a normal winter, but at least we can ride.

January 22 – WOW! Can you say Sleds!!!!

Tons of sleds yesterday!  At least 575 based on picture count.  Probably more.  I had the camera on for a bit yesterday in the afternoon and you would have thought it was I-75.  Sweet!  And the best part is the trail was holding up great!  No shadows from the rippling effect that I could see.  The groomers are doing a great job!  Thank you!

As Joe said, it is going to warm up the next two days, then cool down again and more snow.  The trail should hold up well until it cools again.

January 21st Update – Come Ride, It’s Perfect

Pretty much perfect riding today.  Couldn’t ask for more.  Hope you are up riding!  Wish I could be out riding this weekend.

Sled Count estimate for Friday, January 20th: 150

We are getting so many pictures of sleds going by it blows up the images function.  For now, we will have to only show the last couple of days when it is a heavy traffic weekend.  We have most of the pictures if you are looking for a particular one.  Just let us know date & time.

January 20th – SNOW SNOW SNOW! Temporary fix to images page

Well, you can see it for yourself!  Looks like we are above the 1 foot marker on the snow depth!  It has been snowing constantly for the past two days and trails around Gaylord are going to be perfect for you to come up this weekend!

There is an issue with how many pictures the images page can handle.  So for now, only the past week’s pictures will be available there until we find a fix.  If you want a picture that is older, let us know.

January 19 early update – snow drifts!

You know there is tons of snow when you can see the beautiful ripples of the drifts!  :) . It is going to be a treat for the first person down the trail this morning!  Get out there!

Sled Count estimate for Wednesday January 18th: 50

It looks like there is a problem with the images page.  We will work on that later today/tomorrow.  Sorry!

January 17th Sled Count & Trail Update

Hi everyone.  Looks like the trail may hold up through this week.  That is nice!  We should get some snow during the week to make a better base.  Hopefully it doesn’t get too warm.

Sled count for Monday, January 16th: 30

I have been told the sled count for this past Saturday was low.  So, I had estimated 150, but have not had time to go back and scan through the pictures.
