What about sleeping in your tent in a designated site at the trailhead?
Lurching Zombie

Sleeping in a tent at the trailhead is fine (at least according to the criteria I use) -- same as car camping. The critical concept is that you're in a tent as opposed to a fully protected shelter, such as your car.

That's because you can't hotlink from webshots. Try something from an open server.

My trip to PA last April was just over 1,100 miles one way.
