    Jersey Devil

    I missed it, which from the sounds of it seems like a good thing. What part of the Pines were they searching?

    Ongs Hat Vortex

    Is is accessible or is that what is surrounded by the fence? I was told you couldn't get to it, and that the DOD Police made passes by there often, but that could just be people trying to keep others away from the site (I was told by someone who was in the Army and did drills @ Utz which is...

    More Pine Barrens Weirdness

    No, the last photo was taken about a 1/2 mile or so away from the first. Not entirely sure what it is, but it looked like ruins of some sort (I'm guessing its something from when they were building the nearby development.)

    Glad to hear you made it out with no ticks, that is always a postive thing. Thank you again for loaning me your book, I am finding it very informative.

    More Pine Barrens Weirdness

    I swear this is the type of stuff you only find in the pines *lol* A couple of weeks ago, I tagged along with my husband when he returned to the housing development that he and a crew from the Magnolia Road fire company had protected during the wildfires. He had been asked by the webmaster of...

    Some true Brooksbrea history From the Corporations of New Jersey List of Certificates complied by the Secretary of State, it states that the Brooksbrea Brick Company was incorporated on March 24, 1906, and was still in existence in December 1911. Furthermore, it states that Capital Stock...

    Calico ( Highway To Hell )

    You'll find that there are many friendly people living in the pines, but just as many (if not more) people living there that won't give you the time of day (or who you wouldn't want to be around). I hope your next trip out proves to be more successful, and I have to agree that hiking may be your...

    Pine plains on 539 after the fire

    Unfortauntely, the pines need fire to reproduce. It is there way of surviving, which is why every few years you get a fire somewhere (not always as big as this one). The area was so dry that you're right, something would have caused it soon enough anyway.

    History of the Brooksbrae Brick Company

    I am definitely not giving up on the history of this place. I have been compiling a list of phone numbers and addresses of places that *should* have information on the historical places of the pines, and I will keep the thread updated if and when I find anything worthwhile. In the meantime, I'll...
