STRATFORD — On Sunday, Oct. 23 at approximately 1:45 p.m., N.H. Fish and Game was notified by N.H. State Police of a single-vehicle ATV crash on the Corridor C ATV Trail off Perry Road in the town of Stratford. A Conservation Officer responded to the scene along with the Groveton Ambulance and Stratford Hollow Volunteer Fire Department to assist the patient, identified as Rachel Tessier, 44, of Manchester.
There were no witnesses to the crash, however, an investigation of the scene and a subsequent interview with Tessier indicated that while traveling down Corridor C behind her riding partner, Tessier struck a bump in the trail coming out of a corner. This caused her to lose control of her machine, and to avoid being crushed by it, she jumped off and landed hard on her upper body. Tessier was not traveling at a high rate of speed, consistent with the evidence left behind at the scene and the lack of damage to the machine she was riding.
