#LiveMaine Winter Instagram Roundup

Most Mainers seem to enjoy winter... from December until February. However, once March rolls around, some are sick and tired of the cold, while others continue to milk every last drop out of the remaining snow. Whatever you choose to do with your free time in the early spring months is fine with us, as long as you're sharing the fun on Instagram using #LiveMaine!

Here are some of our favorite photos you guys posted to Instagram using the #LiveMaine hashtag. From surfing, to ice fishing, sunrises, and sunsets, be sure to share your photos with #LiveMaine on Instagram for a change to be featured next month!

Rising Tide Brewing - BeerME

Winter has returned!

There's no doubt about it, this winter has been a wild one here in Maine. Cold spells, massive Nor'Easters, and false teases of spring-like weather have dragged Mainers on a roller coaster ride over the past few months. 

Live Maine Community - The Riders Club

Some of the most uplifting stories to read these days are about people giving back to their community. It is especially encouraging when we hear that these good deeds are happening right here in the state of Maine. This winter, the Riders Club organization set out with a selfless mission to expand access for Maine youth to snowboarding and freestyle skiing. We stopped by their “Park Shark” event series at Sugarloaf back in February to see what it was all about.

#LiveMaine February Instagram Roundup

February sure brought a roller coaster of weather to Maine this year. The month started out with snowstorm after snowstorm, leaving parts of the state buried with over five feet of snow. Then as President's Day approached, temperatures climbed into the 60's, giving us an early taste of spring.

Regardless of Mother Nature's indecisiveness, many of you Mainers took advantage of snow days or warm afternoons to enjoy the many beautiful things the State has to offer. Here are some of our favorite photos you guys posted to Instagram using the #LiveMaine hashtag.
