That's fine, but what you wrote might easily be mistaken as trolling, even if it was well-intentioned.

What brand of permethrin are you using? AFAIK, they are all only intended to pre-treat fabric and you are supposed to let it dry before wearing. I never handle that stuff without wearing rubber gloves myself. This is from the Sawyer's box IMO, if you want to be able to directly spray them you...

"Everyone" is three people mentioning permits in this thread. Who was "pushing for permits"? I pointed out a law that regulates hiding geocaches on state land - something I never even knew existed until it was discussed here in the past. However, given that such a law exists, should it only...

That's what I am wondering too. Don't know about "treasures", but you need a permit to hide a geocache on state land...

Sorry. "They" is @cattothepines, who started this thread. They described the place where they saw this "item" on a tree and it doesn't seem to be what you are talking about. As I understood the post, it wasn't Franks Ford road, but an overgrown trail off of that road. But their post is rather...

Will be interesting to see the exact location. They called it a "old dried up bog looking spot" on an "almost fully overgrown trail". That doesn't really seem to describe your scenic location. :)

@cattothepines - it might be helpful to see exactly where you're talking about. The new USGS topo shows Franks Ford Road here and I used that name on my old topo map(s) https://boydsmaps.com/#16.00/39.701560/-74.556553/ustopo2023/0.00/0.00 However, I recently noticed that the USGS legacy topo...

I can see your logic. But who is "Big Brother" and why is he interested in a "dried up old bog" on an "almost fully overgrown trail"? :ninja:

Why would you jump to that conclusion? I mean... sure, it could be. But we have quite a few threads here about private citizens putting trail cameras on public land, including one from this suspicious individual... :D

Mount for a trail camera perhaps? ...And welcome to the site!

Looks like somewhat over an inch at my place and that agrees with the nearest NJDEP station here. Interesting that they don't show anywhere near 7 or 8 inches, the stations in the pines that I checked were all less than 3 inches. I suppose it could be all about the methodology - they are...

That briefing above said "damaging winds are the main threat" in two different places. Looks like they called that wrong (so far), no wind at all here and the forecast says 5 mph tonight. Not that I'm complaining... :D

Nothing here yet but a very light sprinkle. Was out for a half hour and came back to see whether this part will hit me, has been hanging just West of me so far but that probably won't last. Have not seen much of a temperature drop at all here. [edit]Raining hard here now!

Hasn't reached me yet, trying to finish up some chores and get out to the woods and wait for the arrival. That red area around Glassboro is a tornado warning, but it expires in a few minutes. No doubt there will be more to come though...
