Sliding! (Topsfield: live, vehicles, pictures)

[Maine Writer]

Mollysmiles and No Klugh came out to slide with us today.

We're going again next Sunday. If you'd like to join us (please do!) please DM me for time and directions to my house. I live approximately 10 miles from the intersection of Routes 1 and 6 in Topsfield or 20 miles from the end of Rt 9 in Baileyville. Snowshoes are helpful because we have to walk a quarter mile to the gravel pit. We have another storm coming but there should be a good snowmobile trail to walk by Sunday. If you want to bring snowmobiles there are a lot of well-marked trails in the area.


Molly and J went down in the big sled. Molly was going to hold on to J but when she realized how fast that sled goes she changed her mind. That's what sparked, "Ok I lied!" at the beginning of the video.


Want to go for a ride? I videoed a ride down. The scream and (WARNING!) potty mouth are from shock over an unexpected face full of snow. We veered off the trail and into the loose snow.

This gives you an idea of the size of the gravel pit. That's Mollysmiles coming down the hill.





All done! Snowshoeing back to our vehicles.

Maybe not next weekend, but we'll definitely be there soon! Looks like so much fun.

It would be great to get a group together... we had soooo much fun!

Looks like you all had fun! Can you get there without snowshoes?

[Maine Writer]

It's easier if you have them but I walked out without mine. As long as the snowmobiles go through after the storm and before Sunday it should be ok.

[mollysmiles]

I let you wear mine in and you can pull me on the sled! LOL...

How lucky you guys are! That looks like so much fun!!! Only the first 2 videos are showing for me.

That DOES look fun. I love the pictures of the trail, very pretty! That's really great
that you all get together too.

I'm going to have to pass on this Sunday...I have other commitments for Sunday morning...maybe if the weather holds I could get a rain check...

Great minds think alike, I took the Ruffians out sledding today over here as well. So nice to be able to act like a kid again under the guise of taking the knee-biters out .
