Looking for a place where I can go primitive camping (open camping/dispersion camping) within driving distance (less than 5 hours) in the New York City area. Anyone know of a National Forest or park that allows this that they would recommend? One with great hiking would be ideal. I'm looking to go in the fall when the leaves start the change. Many thanks.

Answer
you can get to many places within a 5 hour radius of nyc...
in new york state you can go to the adirondacks or catskills (the catskills are closer but the ADK's are way more magnificent)...


since you're willing to drive up to 5 hours you can also get to places within new england such as vermont and new hampshire..in NH the area around mt washington and the presidential range has the best mountain scenery in the east

...as far as specific camp istes you'll have to do your own research depending on if you want to car camp, backpack or canoe camp and depending on how difficult you want

Travel from Mexico to Philippines? Has anyone taken a boat or plane from Acapulco?

No Answer

Any personal information regarding backpacking contacts in Mexico, cruise lines, airlines, or best backpacking and camping routes is greatly appreciated. --thanks!
I have a valid US passport. I want to depart from Mexico or South America only. --thanks.

Answer
Hello, i think it's better if you fly domestically from Acapulco to mexico first or fly to usa internationally, and then mexico/usa to manila. From new york to manila costs about $1000 for a return ticket.
