<p>I would like to do a one way hike but if I have to do an out and back I will. I will check out Harriman in NY.</p>
<p>If anyone wants to join and split the ride, that would be great</p>

<p>Obviously NJ frowns upon open fires and sleeping in the "backcountry", with the AT being the only place you're technically allowed to overnight along the trail (but no fires). I was reprimanded slightly by an AT trail runner over the summer for having a fire (I used an existing fire ring in a well used site just north of Sunrise Mtn).

<p>Obviously NJ frowns upon open fires and sleeping in the "backcountry", with the AT being the only place you're technically allowed to overnight along the trail (but no fires). I was reprimanded slightly by an AT trail runner over the summer for having a fire (I used an existing fire ring in a well used site just north of Sunrise Mtn). There's certainly evidence that many people are having fires despite the rules - what the penalties are if they're enforced I don't know. Rutherford and Pochuck shelters are both somewhat far from easy access and both had ample evidence of fire usage when I hiked the AT in the fall. Are you doing an out and back (ie returning to your car) or getting dropped off/parking at one trailhead and getting off trail at another 15-20 miles away?</p>
<p>You know the AT goes into NY where you can legally have fires. Harriman offers lot of options. I've never been on the AT north of that. The AT section through Harriman is a solid 15 miles I think starting at Elk Pen (going North) and ending at Bear Mountain Bridge (or vice versa). </p>
