camping place new york image
Anon
I'm thinking of going on a camping like trip with a few buddies. We're going to go into the woods and camp, but only eat what we find/fish/kill. What should I bring ? Also, if someone could think of a way to play CDs while we're out there it would be welcome. I live in New York, and it's going to take place in New York. It will last at least a week at most 3 weeks. Thank you for your time.

You will need everything on this list,

You will also need a wilderness permit, a campfire permit, a gathering permit, a hunting permit, a fishing permit, a trapping permit and a firearms permit since you are in New York.
Use a trail finder to find routes and destinations with good water sources and wildlife.

What is a good appalachian trailhead in between new york city and washington dc?

I live in DC and I have friends in ny. We are looking for a good place in between (2-3 hour drive) our two cities to meet and do a day hike on the Appalachian. I know this will put us in Pennsylvania somewhere - what are some good spots to meet? Thanks.
Answer
Your goal is not realistic. The Mountains in Maryland that include the presidential retreat Camp David have the Appalachian Trail. It would take you 1 hour 15 min. to 1 hour 45 minutes to get there.
In Pennsylvania the A. T. run in a north easterly direction from out beyond Harrisburg by over an hour that would mean your friends traveling from ny would need to travel 2 hours 15 minutes down I -95 to philadelphia take the Blue route to the Pennsylvania Turnpike ( Another 20 minutes) take the turnpike to Harrisburg West exit nearly dead on 1 and a half hours.Then they would have to drive over an hour to get to trail :over 5 hours of driving total.
Say you meet near ny, it would take 2 hours 45 min. to 3 hours 15 minutes north on I-95 just to make Philadelphia then you would have to drive 2 to 2 and a half hours to meet your friends.
sorry it just won't work.
