    Hi. Thanks for posting the map of Mount Tom State Forest trails near Hoosick, NY. I’m planning a bikepacking trip for next week and planning on primitive camping there. I understand there are no formal primitive sites. Are you aware of any places that might be well suited for primitive camping? My current plan is to go up Shaker Hollow Road and look in that flattish area to the west of the road.

    Thanks,

    Glenn
