Vermont Overland Trophy, Beginners' Edition

The Vermont Overland Trophy is a competition (but not a race) that traverses a beautiful area of the state via Class 4 roads. These are essentially roads that time has nearly forgotten with some being more than 200 years old. Although obscure, they are indeed legal, mapped, public byways. Their entry points are accessible from traditional roads, but often hidden by overgrowth, making this a contest not only of off-road prowess, but also of discovering the hidden passageways. Embarking on the VOT was like taking off in a time machine to an era of covered bridges, postcard landscapes, villages, a complete absence of reliable cell phone signals , and a route through mountain trails openly hostile to “normal” vehicles and “normal” drivers.

Very few cars. No car seats. Huge trailers pulled by little motorcycles. Just a handful of the striking impressions made by the difference in transportation between home and Cambodia.
