    • There are a variety of towns spread throughout the Hudson valley north of New York City. This area is made up of historic landmarks and awesome scenery. From sleepy countryside villages to historic estates, the countless towns of the Hudson River Valley are rich in differing periods of American history. A great place to hang out and relax.

    I'm currently working on a page dealing with the Catskills and Hudson River Valley... please standby...

    • It is hard to find a path not-oft-beaten in the state of New York, but the farther from the city you go, the better your options become. There are many solitary opportunities to be discovered in the Adirondack Mountains. Just be safe and stick to the guidelines of common sense, especially when you're out tramping solo in the wilderness. New York State also has various rules and guidelines as far as overnight campgrounds, marked trails and zoned areas. Try to familiarize yourself with these important legalities. Above all, enjoy the nature that New York has to offer.

    Off The Beaten Path: Bonfire on the sands of Maidstone Bay

    • First off, doing this is breaking the law. Now that thats clear, I really suggest doing it! Maidstone is a beautiful bay tucked away in the Springs Fireplace area of East hampton Town. The sunsets here are unbelievable, and a bonfire (especially during low season i.e. early winter when its not TOO cold) is an awesome and favorite pastime. A very safe place as well, alot of times we would sleep on the sand overnight. On one occasion, in the fall, just coming off of an Indian Summer, there were phosphorescents (sp?) in the water. If you've ever seen the movie The Beach, that is what its like... no joke. It was an amazing experience! I'm not sure if thats a regular occurence or not....
