Default Places to jump in New England

This may be a silly question but here goes. I live in CT and want to pursue BASE in 2009 but once my training is complete (was going to use APEX) where in the tri-state area do I go? My local DZ has no base jumpers that I know of and I would hate to go thru all this to be stuck with no one and no where to jump. I am happy to drive an hour or 2 in any direction.
Thanks in advance

Continue to visit BLiNC, this way you will be able to meet jumpers here, then either they can travel to you, or you to them..

The board is an invaluable tool in finding information and people who are near to you. You maybe surprised that there are BASE jumpers near you, but prefer to keep a low profile.

I'm hoping you live west of your DZ. If so, or you really don't mind driving, I'll PM you with my email. you bring coke and whores, we base jump. I'm flexible about the jumping...... I also have some nice objects between us, they are just so damn tall and I really hate going over 300' in the winter.

c ya
