Mass. woman injured in N.H. snowmobile crash

A Massachusetts woman was injured in a snowmobile crash in New Hampshire late last week, according to the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department.

On Friday, state and local law enforcement and firefighters responded to a remote trail in Clarksville around 4:50 p.m. after receiving a 911 call, the department said in a Tuesday press release . The caller reported that a woman had injured her leg in a snowmobile crash.

Witness statements and the on-scene investigation indicated that 43-year-old Fitchburg resident Emily Walden accidentally hit the accelerator on her snowmobile while trying to make a U-turn, the department said. The mistake propelled her down a short, steep embankment next to the trail she was riding on.

Walden was thrown from her snowmobile during the crash and injured her leg, the department said. First responders evaluated her at the scene before carrying her out of the woods on a rescue sled. She was then taken by ambulance to Upper Connecticut Valley Hospital in Colebrook.
