Twenty years ago you could have crossed just about anywhere in rural areas over land. I know a person who's home growing up was on the border. Front door was in US and back door in Canada, I'll bet that house has been demolished since 9-11. Years ago I had a friend in NB, farmed both sides of border. Because the St. John River ran very close to border and river was not straight, many NB ers farmed American soil and and guys from ME farmed Canadian soil. That has all changed, I heard a story of a widow's farm driveway loops into US following the river. Close to 80 years old and she has been chased down by border patrol with machine guns a number of times. Sad, but true, sign of the times. I don't think I'd cross even on foot in a farmers field. You best go to official crossing, you'll live longer.
