[RBW] Re: Riv. Camping trip, NYC, seeking route advice

[Joe in the Pay Area]

I'd take the LIRR east and 'do' the North Fork and stay in Greenport's KOA. 
There's a ferry over to...uhm...Shelter Island?... and then you could go on 
to the South Fork and head out to the lighthouse and/or Montauktown 
(goo--ooo-oood seafood!), and pass the Big Duck on your way back. Traffic 
should be minimal because "the season" is over. Sunburn would be your only 
problem and the waters should still be warm enough to stop and skinnydip.

Hey guys. I've tried to save these rides in map my rides or ride with gps, 
but not having any success. The old ones in the system don't show cue 
sheet, so I can't tell what roads (unless you zoom in real close and scroll 
around, be my guest, very user unfriendly. Maybe you now must upgrade to 
get the cue sheet?)

Here is Indian Brook on a map:

You can scroll around and look for these other dirt or mostly dirt road 
that hook in:

Old Albany Post
S. Highland
Avery
Canopus Hollow
Sunken Mine (zoom in, it runs through parkland)
Old Forge
Ninam

Other roads that are nearby with links via regular roads. These are partly 
dirt (one side) and hills:
East Mountain
Long Hill

There are others but my recollection of names is somewhat limited...
I will try to

Wow, thank you all, this is really helpful!   I hadn't heard of a couple of 
these parks, and I do the ride to Bear Mt. enough that I didn't realize there 
are more enjoyable rides to be had. 
Mark, I do want to hear more about the dirt roads up there, and I'm guessing 
I'm not the only one...is there a map/app/guide?  Thanks for all your insight.
Justin, thank you! We're not doing the swift campout, but have fun and thanks 
for the invitation.

Hi A, are you looking to do something for the Swift Campout? I have a 
private ride planned that weekend but we could probably fit you and your 
friend. Email me and I'll send details. justinkennedy00 at gmail dot com

[J Schwartz]

I was going to suggest something similar as Bob.
Take the Metro North all the way to Wassaic and get off there.  You could 
do a nice loop in the rolling farmland of eastern Dutchess County and go 
into NW Connecticut and even Western Massachusetts and make it back to the 
train station and home in 1 day.

How about Taconic State Park - Rudd Pond (just north of Millerton, NY), 
followed by Bash Bish Falls State Park further north? 

(I've been to the former, but not the latter.) You can take the Metro North 
train to Wassaic, and a good portion of the route from Wassaic to Rudd Pond 
to Bash Bish is on the Harlem Valley Rail Trail.
