Gifford Field
Gifford Field is the northern most airport in the State. Its size limits it to small category aircraft however the airport is open in the winter to ski equipped airplanes.
Colebrook, New Hampshire is located in Coos County, 10 miles from the Canadian border. The town sits by the Connecticut River in the pristine "Great North Woods". Exceptional fishing, hunting, camping and hiking are available in the Connecticut Lakes area as this is one of the most untamed areas still available in the Northeast. Snowmobilers can travel the trails throughout the area (rental snowmobiles are readily available) and even cross the border into Canada.
