Two western Maine snowmobilers were taken to the hospital Saturday afternoon after crashes that occurred just a few hours apart.
A Massachusetts woman was taken by a LifeFlight helicopter to a Bangor hospital following an afternoon accident in Carrato. LifeFlight responded three hours later when a snowmobile crashed in Jackman.
Kelly McMahon, 27, of West Bridgewater, Mass., suffered lacerations, bruised ribs and a gashed knee during a crash on Pleasant Pond Loop Trail in Caratunk, said Rick Clowry of the Maine Warden's Service. LifeFlight was called after McMahon lost consciousness during the ambulance ride, Clowry said.
She was taken to Eastern Maine Medical Center. None of the injuries was believed to be life threatening.
Speed and inexperience likely contributed to the crash, Clowry said. The cold snap Friday night and Saturday froze the trails making them very fast, the Warden said.
"This was her first time on a snowmobile," Clowry said.
LifeFlight also had been called for a snowmobile accident in Jackman that occurred around 3:45 p.m. on Saturday.
Details were unavailable Saturday evening, but there were indications the crash resulted in serious injuries, Clowry said.
