Lots of places to choose from in Gaylord. Mainline hotels, smaller motels, etc. If you want simple, clean, and across the street from the trails, I would recommend http://www.thewatersinn.com/ Check availability. MANY snowmobilers stay there for the great rate and are gone most of the day and do not need the amenities of the larger hotels.
Looking forward to returning as many times as I can. This is a great way to help anyone looking to head this way to sled! Thank you again for such a wonderful contribution! I have this bookmarked and I watch so I can see when conditions are right to go. Went up last weekend to explore, broke in my new sled and did the Harley ‘wave’ for your cam. I plan to do that every time I go by. It’s my new thing! Awesome!
It is warming up today and tomorrow, so that is not good! But, it is supposed to snow Thursday and Friday and as long as we don’t lose the base we currently have, riding should be “okay”. I was out this weekend and by night on Saturday, it was getting bumpy! Not enough snow yet for the groomer to knock down the mounds and level things off. But at least we can ride!
Thanks so much. We will be leaven Wednesday Mid Day. About a 5 hour drive for us. Do you anticipate losing the base? Looks like the warms isnt gonna be prolonged by the forecast

Hi Zach. I have a friend who works for the National Weather Service and I asked him about the weather/snow this week. Basically, Thursday it gets cold and snowy again, but with a chance of a quick (day or less) warm up with slushy to rainy this weekend, then plummeting temps to single digit highs around Christmas eve. Unfortunately, it is about 35-40 degrees here today and is killing the snow!

We agree. Nothing better to make the day more enjoyable then hearing sleds pass!
