View MSU Snow Mold Trials at Treetops on March 31

Nancy Dykema

Research Assistant

It’s snow mold time again. The Treetops snow mold trial viewing (“field day”) is set for this  Thursday, March 31. We will plan to meet at the Pro Shop at Treetops/Sylvan Resort at 10 am, as in the past, and will travel as a group to the plots. 

The address to the resort is:

Treetops Resort
3962 Wilkinson Road, Gaylord, MI 49732
1-888-TREETOPS (888-873-3867)

Remember, we’re meeting at the pro shop, not the main resort, but this will get you to the property if you’re using a GPS system.

From the Gaylord exit off I-75 (exit #282), proceed east through Gaylord on Rt 32 until you reach Chester Rd (2-3 miles east of town). Turn left (north) on Chester Rd and proceed until it dead ends on Wilkinson Rd (1-2 miles). Turn right (east) on Wilkinson Rd and proceed about 1 mile to the resort entrance on the left. The pro shop is located on the first drive on the left. Lodging is available at the resort or at various hotels in Gaylord.

As always, be prepared for any weather conditions for the tour. Rain and cold weather gear is recommended - it is Michigan in March after all. 

Feel free to bring as many associates along as you wish, but please contact Nancy Dykema  ASAP with the number of people attending from your organization either by email at dykema@msu.edu (best method) or by calling the Vargas lab at (517) 353-9082 and leaving a message.  If you RSVP by phone, please leave an email address where we can send a message if the plot tour is cancelled for some reason.

If you have any questions, you can contact us at 517-353-9082. We looking forward to seeing you in Gaylord.
