Hitchiking out
To get onto the I-89, you can either try your luck in central White River Junction (to get on the I-89, you first have to go on the I-91 for one exit, which makes getting there a bit harder) or walk about a mile along US Route 5 in northerly direction (from the point where the two interstates cross), where you can hitch hike along US Route 4 for about 3 miles to a more convenient on-ramp. Joining US Route 5 a bit south of the central on-ramp, Wright Reservoir Rd leads to a small natural reserve with a lake, a really nice spot to spend a night (although the moskitos are a pain).
