North East Backcountry Discovery Route: Day 3/Track 3 Into Wilmington, VT

Day 3: Lee, MA to Wilimington, VT About 140 miles

Today must have been a good day. If you count the day by amount of ice packs needed to rest. This is a 2 knee and one shoulder kinda ride.

The Paddock at the Viking Inn

So we left Lee, and decided to take the detour to the Mt Greyson.

Never knew about the Civilian Conservation Corps (1930-1940s) to put young men to work. Then most left the CCC and were conscripted into WW2. I feel as if a group of young men imagine where their legos left off. Look at this ornate structure they built on the summit.

The summit was packed today, so we decided not to stay.  But a nice overlook

My best Moose Imitation

The two class IV roads were much like a baby head infested river bed. They are mostly ATV trails, which are somewhat heavily traveled. The thumper motor was in its' element. The Grey Goose looked like a goose taking flight. It would run real fast, then neck in/out, then a few flaps of wings..then finally flight! I think that one gets about 5 pickups on a heavy bike before the fun meter is pegged. But, what a super trooper he was!

Some nice rolling hills
