Millinocket prepares new multi use bridge for upcoming snowmobile season

Separate efforts to build a multiuse recreational bridge over the Penobscot River and a $625,000 walking and biking trail along Millinocket Stream are progressing nicely. The bridge will be used by hikers, snowmobilers, bicyclists and other outdoor enthusiasts, and it is crucial to efforts to build an ATV trail network in the Katahdin region, proponents have said.

More pictures of this bridge can be viewed by checking out the NTCSC Facebook page. Follow along the progression of this new recreational corridor with these news article from the Bangor Daily News.

Hillcrest Golf Club posted for "No Snowmobiling"

Due to recent damage caused by snowmobiles to the local golf course's greens there will be no more snowmobiling on the golf course grounds. The facility is now posted "No Snowmobiling" and violators will be prosecuted. Its unfortunate that these measures had to be taken... but recent damage to the greens have prompted this measure.
