RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - North Carolina's Mountains-to-Sea Trail grew a bit in the past two months.
In December and January, the trail acquired land in Guilford, Orange and Johnston counties. Trail executive director Kate Dixon says the acquisitions are especially helpful because groups have been working hard to acquire land in the heavily populated Triangle and Triad areas.
The acquisitions are 250 acres in Guilford County; 65 acres in Orange; and 330 acres in Johnston.
The trail is a state park that eventually will stretch about 1,000 miles from Clingmans Dome in the Great Smoky Mountains to Jockey's Ridge on the Outer Banks. About half the trail is completed.
