American Hiking Trails: North Country Trail

One of the lesser known hiking trails in the U.S. but easily the longest, the North Country National Scenic Trail, generally known as the North Country Trail or simply the NCT, is a footpath stretching over 4,800 miles (7,700 km) from Middlebury Vermont to Lake Sakakawea State Park in central North Dakota; connecting both the Long Trail and the Appalachian Trail with the Lewis and Clark Trail. Passing through the eight states of Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and North Dakota, it is the longest of the eleven National Scenic Trails authorized by Congress. Hikers can trek the hills and valleys, stand on the shores of lakes & streams from glaciers 10,000 years before. Clear-flowing water, red/gold of autumn, a fairyland of snow, open prairies, and distant horizons paint the land. Historic sites along the way tell how America settled and grew as a nation. Now available as a poster print, canvas, metal sign, mini-canvas, notecard, or postcard, this original vintage-style illustration will look great in any room and on any wall. Styled after the vintage poster art and travel art of the mid-20th century, this artwork is the perfect gift for anyone who’s enjoyed hiking the North Country Trail.
