Default little help from PA,NY,and other closebys

i'm looking for a nice place to go camping that has nice hiking/mountain biking trails. somewheres that has a nice view and you have to have 4WD to get there. any help would be great. i know i could look it up on the internet, but i wouldn't be getting any quite place by doing that.


thanks

PA Wilds hands down. Just driving through there is an experience since there isn't civilization for about 36 miles.

I took Lee through the PA Wilds he might agree you get a great view and scenery.

I was driving out there one evening it was overcast. I crested a mountain and suddenly there was snow all over the place and I had to go down a 40 grade mountain road with hairpin turns all over the place. Then I eventually drove into Renovo where they see sunlight for about 5-6 hours a day because the town is in a deep valley where the mountains block sunlight.

The most "offroading" I've done with my Integra was pulling into the sand beach spot next to our camp spot up by Sackets Harbor, NY. h:

I also had a good time at a camp ground right next to Lake George, NY. Beautiful area.
