not much info. were they trying to mug this guy or something?

Or at least until someone loses an eye.

I won't be able to make it this year as I am hosting a play date with 6 year olds while my wife is at a bridal shower near the shore. I hope everyone has a great time there, sorry to miss it. Jeff

Yes, they are very close. It is interesting how the batsto flows in a southernly direction and friendship goes north when they originate in such close proximity. I wonder why that is? You know, when i walk out my front door, if i walk straight a head i end up at the batsto in 300 yrds or so...

that is really cool, Boyd. I would be interested to know the geological considerations in the formation of the ridge. Not being very well educated in geology I would first consider it a testiment to the age the oswego. Guy, you are absolutely right. I had the picture in hand as I took the...

Went to the spot I determined to be Calico ridge. There is a very steep drop going down to martha's pond. It is somewhat hidden now due to tree maturity, but I can imagine it must have been an amazing vista years ago. Take a look at the photo again 1971 Now look at this photo i took today...

I recently led a PBX hike in the retreat preserve in southampton. A portion of that hike was along friendship creek north of route 70. Bobpbx and I were discussing the headwaters of friendship creek primarily burrs mill brook. However, I seemed to recall that friendship creek had it's head...

I heard it. I was in a basement in Mt. Laurel working. I thought it was a helicopter going over the house.

I did a little research on this. Calico Ridge is, in fact, a geographically designated ridge extending 6 meters in height along the eastern bank of Martha's pond. It is less a specifically named spot, than it is a natural occurence. While Behr's spot is south of Martha's pond, it could still be...

Yes the CCC planted many many white pines and as Gibby mentioned, Lebanon is full up them. I noticed that the white pines don't seem to procreate in the pines. That doesn't seem to make sense but it seems that way. I only notice them in the nurserys and near old dwellings. Jeff

Ed, I can tell you with 100% certainty that Behr was referring to this spot and the sandy bank slightly to the north. He told about it as we drove past after a PBX hike years ago. http://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.67495383476372&lng=-74.51429843902588&z=19&type=h&gpx= Jeff

Sorry it took so long. Here you go.

I enjoyed this trip. Bass river is a significant water shed and it will certainly be worthwhile to make it to the absolute begining someday.

Glad your feeling better, Greg.

I believe this is the area you were telling me about on the Retreat hike, Scott. right? this is great news. i am excited to check this place out. This will have to be a PBX event for sure. Jeff

That sucks. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Great photos!!

That is great, Bob. Gee imagine if we made a big "to do" about it everytime we came across someone burying someone else? We'd never finish a hike.
