Day 4, 27th N-S Trail Trek
Posted By auntie on April 27, 2019

10.3 miles; Coventry and Foster, RI
Not my favorite of all the legs on this trail, but still a lot of fun walking with friends. And it goes through Ginny “Queen of the North South Trail” Leslie’s favorite spot, Rice City.

Rice City Church
This entire section is road-walking. Good thing it goes through some of the most scenic towns in RI.

Chickens
And why did the chicken cross the road, anyway? This particular RI Red had no comment. Oh, and that rooster right behind her? He menaced me. Cheeky bastard…

Tardis
It’s bigger on the inside you know.

This is for Ernie
My friend Ernie is convinced that moose are mythical creatures. But why would there be signs of mythical creatures?

Unnamed Pond on Salisbury Road in Foster Center
Like I said, this goes through some very scenic country.
You can find out more about the North-South trail from this rather old and slightly link-rotty website called HTML Outdoors Planet. There is also some very good info on “The Trek” website. But by far the best guide to the North-South Trail is published by the Great Swamp Press. It is, unfortunately, out of print right now, and essentially unavailable as a used book. It is, however, available from the Rhode Island Library system. As always, click the image above for details about this hike and to download the gps track.
