ABOUT US
Welcome to SixStates.net, the online magazine for New England outdoor
adventure. No place in North America has the diversity of
outdoor adventure opportunities that we enjoy in New England.
Here you can kayak Maine's coastal islands, run whitewater
rapids, trek the White Mountains, ski the northern peaks, mountain bike the hills of
Vermont, surf Block Island, or just
chill on one of Cape Cod’s sandy beaches. New England offers
everyone the
chance to experience virtually any outdoor sport, and all
within a day’s drive. To that end, SixStates.net is dedicated to
covering the activities, people, sports and news of the New
England outdoors.
On this website
you’ll find feature stories that inspire New Englanders to take
up their own adventures. We
have news stories and profiles about issues, people and
organizations that impact the region’s recreation and
environment. If you are interested in writing for us, check out
our contributor’s guidelines.
Besides our stories,
our links pages are the most comprehensive directory of New England
adventure and travel websites in cyberspace. And our Events
calendar is the largest collection of New England outdoor
happenings around.
We want to hear from you. If you have ideas
for the site, want to contribute a story, have questions or
just want to tell us how we’re doing, drop us an e-mail at
editors@sixstates.net. We look forward to your feedback.
Cheers,
