On mountain laurel if I recall correctly. If not that, then highbush blueberry.
I had to go back, I wanted to see what the South Branch looked like close to the Parkway. But first, here is something puzzling from the Middle Branch. I'm not sure if we discussed this before, my memory could be failing me, but I don't recall it.
This was out there the whole time I was nearby, about 3 hours. I only post this in case someone had this stolen. More likely, he had a breakdown issue, as nobody would simply park it where it was.
Here, the South Branch crosses the old Tuckerton RR. It was grating to see that, because the ATV'rs would not or could not go through it when high like this, they had a cedar chopping party. Even left the beer cans there. If you are one of them, pick up the cans when you return.
Waterside Asters. If you know where the pit is next to the Parkway, that's where this is. A borrow bit likley.
The ride back there from Well's Mill is always a test. Some gyrations must be done near some of the waterholes. Now they are making very unsightly ditches to drain the road. Some of them go back almost 40 feet.

On the embankment of the old RR, I saw what looked to maybe be something they burned in the locomotive? I turned it over, and was curious so snipped a piece to see if it would burn. I was thinking anthracite. I got it to glow red after 20 seconds, but no flame and no smoke. Maybe it has to be super hot like when you throw it into the boiler?
