NEWPORT — Starting today and running through Sunday, snowmobilers from Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine are taking part in a three-day weekend when riders who are registered in any one of these states can ride the trails of the other two states for free.
The states have agreed to allow trail access without having to pay another state for the opportunity to ride there. Officials say that it is good for the economy of all three states.
All other host state regulations apply, including speed limits, youth laws and Vermont’s mandatory liability insurance law.
This reciprocity weekend has been going since 2010, with Maine joining the weekend festivities in 2011.
So if you have a snowmobile legally registered in any of the participating states, starting today you are allowed on trails in all three states.
Have fun, and be safe.
