    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    We saw a lot of people out there too. My wife asked if I thought it was because of everything that was going on. I didn't think it was, I think it was just a great weekend to be outside. It would have been nicer if I didnt have my agenda but it was still a great weekend.

    What is this place?

    I think is skipped forward to the Dude Fire in Arizona. The Bass River fire of 77 was one that changed the way fairground communications were handled so everyone was operating on the same frequency. It's crazy to think it wasn't always the case prior.

    Ok, I spent the weekend exploring. Yesterday morning I went to several locations that are now posted and no motor vehicles. Just on the other side of each I wiped away any tracks with a broom. I went back this afternoon I retraced my steps. In 2 locations there was at least one set of tracks...

    Belligerent...I don't think so. Defiant...absolutely, that's the definition of not agreeing. Making threats.....isn't that what you're doing in your post. Invite your 8 million friends to enjoy the pines. Let's see what happens then. The answer doesn't lie on either side but somewhere in the...

    There is a very similar beach a mile or two upstream just past Goshen pond. It did not get the same treatment with the signs and sticks. The only thing different is its not an area used by Pineland Adventures, which is in its first year of operations. It makes one wonder the true intentions of...

    What is this place?

    I was just curious. I know in 1936 there was a burnover in Chatsworth and Bass River. And in 1977 bass River again I vaguely remember that one as I was pretty young. I thought there was another in the 50's but I can't find it now.

    Could you please tell me how this new plan is going to help stop this. Other then limiting the law abiding people and reducing the chance of of them getting reported. I spent the day yesterday inspecting those plastic signs. At at least two locations there are tracks going in or out right over...

    That was never a road. And was never legal and I don't condone it. It is also 1/2 a mile from the ranger station off a highly traveled road and yet they still got away with it. If you think a few plastic signs and a map is going to stop them you're crazy.

    I did look a little closer. It is simply gravel. I'm not a geologist nor do I try to be. It is a little darker then what I usually see but that is probably simply because it was just dug up.

    Your lack of sympathy for people who are losing a right that has been in place for over a half a century simply boggles my mind.

    A sad day today. I took a long drive today with my son. Sandy Causeway looks horrible. I did go down a road that is supposed to be closed but I did so only because I noticed work had been done to it. I followed the improved road and eventually got to another road that is supposed to be open...

    I was just on the PPA's Facebook page. They have posted pictures showing the "devastation". None of them are roads. A freshly burnt Jemima Mount. That's been closed off for years and yet vehicles still drive up it. I pile of tv's? This new map will surely stop somebody from dumping.:rolleyes...

    FYI, when I got home today it was blowing out of the East. I noticed since it's not the norm.
