Some of my earliest memories are of that spot. It was the first place my dad took me fishing and we went quite a bit. I couldn’t have been older then 5.

Thanks. I was wondering how visible it still was. It’s on my list of things to check out.

Amazing…as usual!!! Never stop posting them.

With all this talk about canals I am curious if anyone has any info about this canal. I’ve seen it and want to explore it but haven’t had a chance yet. I can’t seem to find much about it. Looking at the LiDAR I can see it’s still somewhat visible...

Another thought. Could that canal been a bypass for for the two sawmills (#1 and #3) and the pond all together from bog iron further upstream.

I thought the same thing about the mills. I was always told both location 1 and 2 were mills. Location 1 specifically being Inskeeps mill. I’ve never had any reason not to believe it but I don’t have any proof. Mill 1 was completely exposed this summer and exploring it I’m fairly certain it was...

Yes that’s #2. It’s just downstream of the earthen dam Here to be exact https://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.7580717507881&lng=-74.77682131927489&z=16&type=nj1995&gpx=

Given some of our past discussions I have given that theory some thought. In Jerseymans post #8 on this thread he identifies 3 mills around the pond. I’m guessing they were in operations at different times. I’ve identified the three mills in the below picture. They only mill that would still be...

it’s been a while since we’ve talked about Goshen Neck. Over the last few months we’ve been exploring around Goshen. Today we explored all along the earthen dam down stream from Old Atsion Road which formed Goshen Pond (not to be confused with what is called Goshen Pond today). The earthen dam...

The kids and I spent the day out exploring. We decided to stop by Hampton. We saw exactly where John (SuperChooch) described. Like he said, it is much easier to see it in person. There’s so much history on top of history there it’s hard to tell what was what. We also stopped at the bridge over...

Pirate Treasure:D

I plan on being around Goshen Saturday.

Yes, aggregate is the word I was looking for but escaped me. Sand and gravel are the only things I can think of someone looking for in a paleo dune. Whether to use nearby or possibly prospecting , that would explain the small test holes to the east too. The funny part is I’d bet that location...

I’ve been playing with the 3-D LiDAR too. I’ve seen a few spots where the top of small hills were dug out. I’ve been thinking they were digging out pebbles to possibly make concrete. That one seems a bit remote but maybe it was for nearby cranberry bogs. Slightly east of that spot there’s a few...

Yes I kind of figured that was what it likely was. It’s a pretty substantial piece.

Sorry. Yes the bridge over the Batsto https://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.770986612267514&lng=-74.67968243759154&z=16&type=terrain&gpx=

On a different note. It may have been discussed before. At the upper pond there’s a structure under the bridge. Does anyone know what it was.

I considered that board more of a beam lol. There is more wood downstream from there too. I figured that was washed away. We were trying to figure out what that structure could have been since it seems to block the flow of the canal.

I should have guessed. I saw all that deadfall and figured it was from a relatively recent fire. That whole area has a lot of dead fall.

You’re talking about here, right? https://boydsmaps.com/#17.51/39.766838/-74.677866/mbx3dmidatl/-6.03/20.40
