9.3 miles; glocester, ri and killingly, ct this was a great hike and a good, if small, group. the weather was fine for hiking; cool and mostly overcast, but the mosquitoes were horrible. we really moved out, just out of self-preservation. this section of the north-south trail starts at the george washington campground in burriville, […]
