New Year's Camping

DateThursday, January 12, 2012 at 12:12PM

To prepare for 2012, I spent a few days of the week between Christmas and New Year's backpacking in New York's Harriman State Park, spending one night in the Tom Jones Shelter, above, where a very persistent raccoon made for a fitful night's sleep. But overall, a great little trip--it's always fun to stay in these old lean-to's in Harriman, which are usually empty this time of year, and there's nothing like a good solo trip to clear the head before the start of a new year.

Happy New Year. See a few more Harriman photos here.
