What's wrong with Connecticut? I'm probably going to be spending most of the summer there because of school related stuff (from the PNW, by the way).

it's like NY's uncool little brother who doesn't have friends of his own (New England) so his mom forces NY to hang out with him. it's a wasteland of commuting yuppie bourgeoisie philistine trash

also, I just hang around in the woods behind my house, white mountains in summer, and occasionally nearby state parks for canoing and mountain biking and suchnot

>central MA

PLENTY of CT is fine. All fo the NW is essentially the Berkshires. Plenty of cool spots along the river. Devil's Hopyard is pretty great.

>Pacific Northwest
A handful of cities and towns, with some farms and a whole lot of /out/ inbetween.

>Northeast
A handful of cities, surrounded by miles and miles of suburbs with little islands of /out/ called 'conservation land' and some nice mountains and forests off in the distance.

I'm sure you'll get plenty of good information on places to go /out/ in the northeast, but my impression is that they're all fucking far away from where I and almost everyone else lives.

It's on the MA border, and I know when I drive past the "Welcome to Thomspon/Welcome to CT" sign it means I've gone too far.

Nice place though, but like the foyer to a haunted mansion, it's warm welcome isn't to be trusted. :\

Devil's is really nice!

I'm from Mystic, stones throw from RI and right on the Sound. Favorite spot in New England is probably the White Mountains in NH. Incredible foliage in Autumn! pic related from a trip I took last Autumn.

watchusett's aight but honestly not much compared to a park or forest. there's monadnock too but i've never been out that way, my brother has though

I feel ya, there aresome pretty decent parks and recreation areas, but nothing ever seems very far from a road. Id like some areas of more rugged terrain, or at least a bit more remote

well the white man's been in MA for a really long time and although most of the state is rural, it ain't exactly wyoming I guess :\

You're all right. Fuck Connecticut. There are some nice places to be found, but there few and far between.
