Bethviper, "Dude" I am in the military and will only be here one season! I am from northern New York, 1 hour north of lake Placid and just want to see ridable snow since I spent my last 4 years traveling to UP of Michigan from Great Lakes ( no snow,) Last year I drove 2100 miles and put 2200 miles on my sled! I hope that I will only have to go a couple hours north to ride most of winter here. My sled are in storage north of Turner( close to ITS 87and 89). I didn't think that brunswick would get much snow but its close to the base for commuting to and from. We have a trip to rangeley area for second week of January and then am looking for advice for the next trip, where do you recommend? Thanks

go up the interstate and dont start sledding till millinoket. this is where the good riding begins.
houlton north is the start of the rail beds and big fields. milinoket, island falls and due north from there are wood roads and lakes. for a great ride stay in milinoket or houlton and ride north up one side for a day, stay in madawaska or saint agatha then ride down the other side. the best thing about up here is less people on the trails. the trails are very well maintained and well signed. if you stay in mad town you can taxi accross the border for strippers. did i say that out loud???? now that we are on that subject there is a strip joint in milinoket too. lacassa de fiesta

I disagree with you Betheviper. Rangely and Jackman are great areas just to name a few. I have been to every area in Maine practicaly and the County is awesome no doubt, but you do not have to go all the way to Millinocket for the "good" riding to start.

bluebullet, i live in wales not far at all from brunswick. 2 years ago the best riding in the state was wales, lewiston, sabatus, turner, buckfield areas. We have prob 10 track trucks between these clubs which means trails are groomed wide, flat and often. For the last two years we have got a ride in by x-mas in the upper rangeley areas (parmachenee). After x-mas dont go to rangeley unless you are with someone who knows the back trails very well because the traffic is terrible and the trails get really beat by early afternoon.

Craig, Sounds great! My sleds are in storage just off highway #4 north of Auburn. I am right by a local trail that connects to ITS 87 and 89 I think, Atleast thats what they told me. Get ahold of me when the white stuff flies and maybee we can get together for a ride! Me and the wife went to grass drags here off of route 125 and watched for about an hour. I can see that the boys here ride mostly Cats but there was a couple of Yammers out there putting on a good show Keith and Dan ( Woodys Performance) on RX1 and a Viper did relly well against all who came in true Yammaha Tradition. Dans Heavy mod Viper spanked all those F7's. ZR 900 and even a big Thundercat! I thought about grabing my SRX for some fun, But didn't really want to get it dirty! Its ready for snow and so am I !!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Terry

We were running them a few weekends ago with keith and dan in sabattus. Dans viper is really fast. I couldnt come close to him. Last weekend we ran them again and keith went to bowdoiham i believe. Is that where you saw him? I know what you mean about getting them dirty. I had my tunnel all polished and the sled was spotless. The first weekend we ran them it didnt get to dirty. But last weekend we started running the drainage ditch in the field and by the end of it the ditch was pretty soupy. My sled was covered, but got it all cleaned up again and ready to go this weekend one more time. It is addicting as hell, i said i would never do it and now i cant stop. I will post for you when we start riding the white stuff.
