    Forked River Mountain Hike

    Looks like a NJ registration sticker on the windshield. I see NJ cars with no front plate pretty often and wonder about that. A Google search just now says that front plates are currently required, however a bill and petition were introduced in 2022 to only require rear plates. Apparently, it...

    1930 aerials now cover all of NJ

    Installation of an updated version of the 1930 black and white aerials is currently in progress. The new version expands map coverage to the entire state (same as the NJGIN version). Have noticed that the 1930's aerials are one of the most popular maps and since the upgrade only involved about...

    Atsion Turntable

    See my post in the other thread. There's a link to the LIDAR map with the crosshairs centered on the turntable. You can open it on your phone, turn on the gps and follow it to that location. You can create a waypoint by simply clicking/tapping the crosshairs...

    I don't think so. Trees seem to enjoy "eating" signs - I have one in my own backyard. :)

    large block off RR in Atsion?

    Exactly. So, I'm wondering what rforce1024's friend was talking about when they said "there were old tracks just north of atsion lake where rt206 bends to the right"? Seems like they have North/South and right/left mixed up! :)

    large block off RR in Atsion?

    That was what I thought at first. However I'd describe it as "just south of atsion lake where rt206 bends to the left". Were there tracks North of the lake? Don't recall seeing anything about that before.

    large block off RR in Atsion?

    Unfortunately, Trailhead00 has not visited the site since 2011. Not immediately familiar with this location and the old link in Guy's post above is broken (will see if we can fix that). But looking at LIDAR just now, I'm wondering if this is the turntable (turnstile?)...

    Music for the day

    When I was in college (in the 1960's), one day my roommate announced that blue jeans and a blue work shirt were his new "uniform", went out and bought a drawer full of the same. Now, almost 60 years later, that isn't so different from my current "fashion sense". When I first started working at...
