Can’t Miss Snowmobiling Destinations From Cover

• Ghost Trains – The North Maine Woods, off ITS 85; The abandoned loco motive cars once used for hauling lumber in the great Northern woods make for a fascinating destination for snowmobilers. In winter, this trail is only accessible via snowmobile and is a solid day trip. Begin your journey in Ashland and be sure to bring extra gas and food as there are no trailside services on this route. ICEWARNING – Be sure to contact local clubs before trav eling on a body of water. Never assume that ice is safe because you see tracks on the ice. KNOW BEFOREYOU GO.
