Massachusetts woman killed in weekend snowmobile crash — State — Bangor Daily News — BDN Maine

PARLIN POND TOWNSHIP, Maine — A Massachusetts snowmobiler died after she drifted off of a groomed trail, struck some trees and was ejected from her sled in Parlin Pond Township, authorities said Sunday afternoon. Several other less serious snowmobile crashes took place over the weekend due, in part, to deteriorating trail conditions, MacDonald said. The Parlin Connector Trail leads to the east side of the pond and then enters the woods. Shortly after Pillman left the pond on her 2010 Polaris 800 snowmobile, she drifted to the left side of the groomed trail and hit the trees. Snowmobilers must remain alert and operate at speeds that will provide plenty of time to stop to avoid hazards," he said.
