What is the latest in the spring you've ridden?

Both on trail and off trail? Where?

The last 3-4 years we have ridden groomed trails from Mars Hill north the last week of March! Looks good for even later this year!!!!!

Rode off trail last two weeks of April last season in and around Rangeley, it was awesome riding too. Some people rode the last week of April up here.

Hight of Land, end of the first week of April. Snow was pretty deep.

Years ago I used to ride in the county well into April. Other than having to wait for large chunks of ice to clump together to get across the Aroostook River it was pretty decent going.

April 14th, 2007. The Allagash. Got a late storm of about 14" and at that time they don't bother plowing at all so we could ride everywhere. Came upon a warden plane that was wrecked on Clear Lake. The last thing they were expecting to see coming was a group of sleds in April...

Or water then ice, remember the year most of the group ran out of fuel on what was left of the lake... And then the road washed out, that day was an adventure haha

Mid April a couple years ago if I remember right. Above Jackman on what was left of some pretty decent trails and also some off trail.
