I had a fun ride yesterday on my new sled. My kids were gone and I had the day to myself, so I decided to head out to Island Pond in the NEK for the day. I loaded up my sled on the truck and took the road trip to Island Pond which is about 80 miles from my place. When I arrived I found a place to unload my sled, I suited up and headed for the trails. It was a sunny day in the north country with temps starting around 10 degrees F and climbing into the 20's in the afternoon. The trails in the east mountains were scenic and breathtaking with plenty of snow to ride on. The colder temps kept the trails in great shape. I stopped in at this little rustic bar and grill type restaurant in Norton Vermont called "Chez Pidgeon's" and had lunch there. This is a great place for snowmobilers to stop in to eat and drink after a few hours on the trails. They have plenty of cold beer or hot drinks, good home cooked food and desserts to satisfy your taste buds. When I arrived, there must of been 60 to 80 sleds in the parking lot. The place was full of people, which come from all over the northeast, New York and even Canada to ride in this part of Vermont. I then headed back on the trails and made a loop back to Island Pond where I started and finished my ride with about 109 miles for the day. I loaded the sled back on the truck. I took the two hour ride back home with a nice memory of my day in the North East Kingdom. I can't wait to go back and do it again. These are some pics that I took while on the trails.
