If you have time you can stop in at the Alpenfrost festival downtown Gaylord.  It is only 1 block from the trail and it runs from 9 am to 3 pm.  Food, games, ice skating and more.    Joe

I also take care of the ice rink in downtown Gaylord and it should be ready to skate on by this weekend, so come into town and check it out and the ice tree.  You can see the ice tree on the county website at www.otsegocountymi.gov

Coming up on Feb 9th we will have Alpenfrost downtown Gaylord.  Information at www.gaylordalpenfrost.com

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!

Just a quick post to let you know that if you are having an issue getting the “images” page to pull up it’s because there are so many sleds going by! 1200+ pictures today, which usually means 400-600 sleds went by at least. Nice!

The snow is really holding up for so many sleds. The temps all day have been ~ 20. I am sure that is helping. We could use some more snow though!

Get riding!

We should be getting some new snow over the next couple of days so come on up and enjoy it.

Joe
