A general heads up that the Jericho ATV festival is happening next weekend. For those who hike south of Route 2 with the exception of seeing ATVs on the main street of Gorham, the impact of ATVs may be low, but head north of RT2 and its now a thriving industry that is starting to match the winter snowmobiling business. The ATV festival at Jericho State Park is generally the focus of the event but there will be ATVs out all over northern NH. As the state Park is off of RT 110, a trip to Mt Cabot might be best scheduled for another weekend and hotels and restaurants in the region may be busy.
