    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Al really sums it up well.;) "There are currently all the laws needed to prosecute abusers." Then why do we need more laws like the MAP? Let's use the existing laws to prosecute the offenders and not make new ones to not be enforced. Choosing not to give up roads to the people who will still...

    Your Forest Under Attack: A Response to the PPA’s Call to Arms

    Very nice Ben. Again, you hit in all the key points. I'm also very disappointed in the stance of the PPA. I've watched, and listened, to several of Rob's presentations. While I don't agree with his stance, he does have valid concerns that we all can agree on. When John did his FIRST...

    To most of us it's not about just closing roads. The best argument I've ever gotten by either the DEP or PPA is "hopefully " this works to fix the problem. If I lived my life on hopes I'd play the lottery every day. I'm a realist and without my kids I probably wouldn't be as passionate about...

    We should also be petitioning the DEP to increase enforcement of the existing laws now. They promised at every meeting, that I went to, more patrols were going to happen with the roll out of the MAP. Now that MAP is on hold it should have no bearing on those increased patrols. And those patrols...

    Its almost stink bug time

    I've never smelled them either. My kids killed one before I could stop them. Something with the stink in its name I expected to at least smell something. Maybe that one lost its stink;). I still don't kill them in the house just in case.

    The good 'ol days...

    Being a little younger Hidden Lakes was slowing down and a bit far away. Back in the day we went to the "Cabin" which is now the lake in the Sanctuary and another pit that I'll leave nameless since it is still there. Last winter I stopped by and the area where we hung out is still there. It...

    Sounds a little familiar. Not to highjack a thread but a recent plan promises to do the same thing:rolleyes:

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Thanks for the update. I haven't made it out to HF too often lately. Every sign my 5 year old sees, who can't read yet, forces him to ask if another road is closed.

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    I agree, lowering water tables, runoff from farms and homes and years of fire prevention have more overall effects then any single road. All anybody has to do is drive down 72. Over the last 40 years it's almost unrecognizable. As the pines age they are more susceptible to desease. This is one...

    Definition of a Piney

    Ahh the Memories. I could change the names of the locations to fit my memories. Might have been a dollar in my pocket though:). I'm working on creating similar ones for my kids. To this day my 9 year old daughter will only eat blueberries from that we get from the woods. The looks I get, when...

    Is the water from artesian wells safe to drink?

    In today's sue happy society you will be hard pressed find anyone that will say you're 100% safe to drink from any artesian well. With that said I drank my fair share from them. Growing up we had a boat in Barnegat and we filled old milk jugs and used it solely for drinking, with no ill effects...
