CHELMSFORD, MA — A Chelmsford resident was injured Sunday morning in a snowmobile accident near Franconia Notch in New Hampshire, reported the state's Fish and Game Department. Officials say a Conservation Officer was running radar nearby when he was notified of an accident approximately half a mile from his location by passing snowmobilers. He responded to the area of Echo Lake and located a snowmobile that had run into a tree at 10:50 a.m. The operator, Andrea Gagnon, had been traveling south on the Corridor 11 snowmobile trail through Franconia Notch when she swerved to avoid a collision with another snowmobile in a narrow section of trail and crashed into a tree. Gagnon suffered minor injuries in the collision. The operator of the other snowmobile also stopped to assist. The accident remains under investigation and no further information has been released.
