Busy MLK Weekend!

Latest Trail Conditions

New Snow Last 24 Hrs: 1”

Base: 0-3”

Heavy traffic yesterday! Thanks to all who came out to see us. The bonfire in the Coyote Corral was a hit on Saturday!

Groomers are going out today to try and repair damage from yesterday, without disturbing the minimal base too much. More snow is in the forecast this week.

Please ride respectfully when on our property. Park in front of the Corral area or behind the split rail fence. We do NOT allow racing on Coyote property.

Finch Intro Image

Hi There!

We’re Pete and Julie Finch, owners of Coyote Crossing Resort.
Our family loves to hit the trails and explore all that northern Michigan has to offer!
We started Pete’s Trail Report to inform other outdoor enthusiasts of the snowmobile trail conditions in the Cadillac area, but we’ll also be sharing our insider perspective of living life at the 44th parallel in hopes to inspire others to take time to stop and smell the pine trees. We hope you enjoy!
