Needed -info and tips as to how to hike thru New York on NB thru hike. They don't allow hitch hiking. AWOL didn't provide a whole lot on that subject. Doesn't seem to be any towns really close enough to walk into and thumbing it technically illegal in NY. Need all the good insight I can get and would appreciate name(s) of better town(s). Obligated to duck into NY towns at some point and just want more specific advice other than "just read a guide book"- Your advice will be appreciated.
