Revisiting this thread since I'm currently working on larger versions of my maps that cover the whole Northeast US region. I need openspace data for all those states and it's a real run-around trying to find it on individual state websites. So, this looks like a very good option for getting all...

Wouldn't need to go any farther than the front door if I were a hunter. Woke up (again) this morning to a very loud "gobble gobble gobble" as Tom Turkey went a-courting in my yard. They are all over the place, making a big mess digging up the leaves around the edge of the yard. Sorry for the bad...

Tonight's forecast is warmer than last night, it was 28 degrees at my place this morning! Big warm-up starts tomorrow night. :) _________________________________________________ URGENT - WEATHER MESSAGE National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 159 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024...

Use the link @stiltzkin posted above and just switch to another map that shows the roads, such as this. You can see there's an upaved road off of Route 532 East of Chatsworth. https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.821379/-74.512997/hybrid/0.00/0.00

Never been there, but apparently this is it. It has a designated NJDEP parking area https://boydsmaps.com/#16.00/40.081940/-74.425611/hybrid/0.00/0.00 Here it is on the NJDEP map...

I fixed a problem with your link. When posting youtube links, all you should need to do is paste them into your post and the forum software will take care of everything. No need to use the link button. As for the video, it reminded me of why I stopped using youtube. Only watched the first few...

Over the years I've driven all over Gloucester County on my way to someplace else, but never really knew much about it. Just found this page while looking for more info on that cabin (confirms it is privately-owned, which surprised me). Lots of other interesting info about early settlers here...

I have driven past this cabin in Swedesboro a number of times and always thought it looked pretty cool, apparently it dates from 1654 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortonson–Van_Leer_Log_Cabin [edit]Also see the link for the oldest buildings in NJ on that same page. :)

I have a book, "A Geography of New Jersey: The City in the Garden" that has a section on early settlements. There's a little map, but they seem to be around the edges of the Pines and not in the middle. Some that are shown are Burlington (1678) Coopers Ferry (1681) Fort Nassau (1626) Raccoon...

I don't really know anything about this, but the links in my old post on page one don't work anymore. Here are new links to the area in Guy's screenshot on the first page, FWIW 2012 https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.753739/-74.508556/pines2012/0.00/0.00 2015...

Have just finished updating the aerials from the National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) to match the coverage area of the Northeast US LIDAR map. And, just to keep you confused, I've changed the name of this map to reflect that it's a companion to the LIDAR - they are now called "Northeast...

If this is right, we should be OK in the Pines, but areas to the Northwest could have some issues.

I found a couple old threads. :) https://forums.njpinebarrens.com/threads/ten-mile-hollow.595/#post-4200 https://forums.njpinebarrens.com/threads/10-mile-hollow-trail.3130/#post-30748

Keep it up and this thread can join the others in the slag heap.... ;)

I know I've been really cynical in this thread, but that's just my cranky nature. I think it's great that you found it to be such a moving experience and hope that the others who went on a trip to view the eclipse had clear skies and good times. I enjoyed your reports!
