voting for a stealth campus hang....sometimes hiding in the obvious works so maybe the main quad.

Just checked 242 out on the map. Distance looks reasonable but I'd definitely have to stealth because...

"Camping on Pennsylvania State Game Lands is generally prohibited, with one exception: hikers may camp within 200 feet of the Appalachian Trail where it passes through game lands. These regulations deny camping for most the state's 1.4 million acres of game lands, but Pennsylvania's section of the Appalachian Trail runs for about 230 miles, and 140 of them are on state game lands."

Is it any critter season right now? You might need your kevlar hammock if it is.

I don't know anything about the campus itself but there should be plenty of small wooded areas around there if you don't mind leaving a car by the side of the road
