Day 5 27th N-S Trail Trek

13 miles; Foster and Burriville, RI, and Killingly, CT Alas, once again I won’t be able to do the last section in two weeks, so today’s hike concluded my version of the 27th Trek. It did include Ginny “Queen of the North South Trail” Leslie’s commemorative post and my favorite view on the whole trail, […]

Day 4, 27th N-S Trail Trek

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.

Well, a 13-mile hike is still a long-assed hike, and I haven’t been spending hardly any time hiking recently. Long story short, I was really […]

26th Annual N-S Trail Trek, Leg 4

10.1 miles; Coventry and Foster, RI After the last grueling leg, this leg seemed easy-peasy—all road walking and “ONLY” 10+ miles. We (for a change) had a glorious day, if not super warm, with sunshine and blue skies the whole time. This is a beautiful part of the state, which made the road-walking downright pleasant, […]

Parker Woodland

7 miles; Coventry and Foster, RI Today I hiked with my new hiking buddy Mary, and we had a lot of fun looking at old rock walls and cairns. Also too, it was a good workout, as this trail system always is. The weather was again perfect for hiking. Just cool enough to keep you […]
