What geographic or climate features might make life more difficult in New England (northeast) vs other colonies?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

winters were especially harsh which made it harder to sustain successful crops through the winter. also the terrain was less fertile and incredibly more hilly with less open space. so tree removal would be necessary for a field to grow on or to build a house on. the hills would make travel and resource distribution much more difficult and more time consuming.
