    Where is the OLDEST habited area of the Pinelands?

    Let's not forget the Flintstones. Some evidence suggests that Stone Age people predated the American Indian by 10,000 years. I must concede however, that the Flintstones were actually labeled a Modern Stone Age Family by researchers, Hanna and Barbera. Here is an ad-ridden but informative...

    Eagle, Bald or Golden?

    Because I heard they don't taste very good. Too much carrion in their diet. ;) And it's against the law, the equivalent of you harvesting Swamp Pink to sell as Easter flower arrangements. :eek:

    Eagle, Bald or Golden?

    Here is the Golden Eagle I got on my carcass cam setup in March of 2012. Back then, my son and I were regularly whacking snows every weekend and I started a carcass camera. Those who were more Avian-educated than myself said that it was a Golden on his way back to points north, most likely NY...

    Talk About Beaver !

    After all the talk about beaver on here lately, I received a work email from the Watershed Institute regarding this talk about beaver. How timely is that?. It sounds very interesting, but at 6:00 pm in Pennigton, I would never make it on time. If anyone is interested it sounds worthwhile...

    Any plans for next April's total solar eclipse?

    I'm ready! (Icarus Brewing Thrash Bash in hand.) Me, staring directly into the sun today with a free pair of Guvmnt cardboard glasses from The National Science Foundation and distributed by our local library. I had my doubts about quality but they are actually Shade 15 which exceeds the...

    Flooded Roads

    You know, I am pretty sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again. If we would all just bite the bullet and start driving POS electric cars, all of this climate change and global warming bullshit would cease to exist and we could all get back to leading normal lives. :)

    Beaver Deceiver At Webb's Mill

    Good question Robert. If and when I ever retire, I'll look into that. :(

    Beaver Deceiver At Webb's Mill

    One thing that may help these situations would be an increase in the number of beaver trapping permits that are issued each year. NJ issues only 200 permits each year across the entire State, for a season that only lasts for 5 weeks. I was lucky enough to draw a permit this year along with an...

    Soggy Burlington County

    Beavers do get displaced by flooding events, but they also start dispersing in early spring because they are getting booted out of their lodges. It's time for them to find new digs and start their own home. Very similar to our black bear. After having successfully snared two this year and eaten...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    I just opened the sluice gate to about 1/3 open on the lake at my sportsmen's club. During the last storm three or so weeks ago the water was cresting over the wings of the dam and getting up close to the top of our bulkhead. Looks like 4" on the way. That's what she said. :D

    More Exploring In Bass River

    Here is my December 23, 2007 response in Gabe's Going Off Trail thread. I like my opinion now more than ever. Off trail hiking creates the lowest possible environmental impact becuse of its random nature and the impossibility of duplicating and using the same trail more than once. Repeated...

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    My Township passed this resolution last night. They have been very supportive in the past and passed a similar resolution back when the permit system was under consideration and contacted our local legislators. Our Mayor, Tom Giangiulio, has vowed to do the same again. Almost 70% of our...

    A cool story about a cool car

    Yep, that's it!

    A cool story about a cool car

    Very cool story Bob. I have a similar but not nearly as interesting story, only because it didn't end with me getting the car. My grandfather's sister, who I called Aunt Mary, was a member of the Ivins clan from Medford and Evesham but she lived most of her life on Linwood Ave. in Collingswood...

    Harbor View to Become Port Cape May

    We were at the inside bar almost every Friday or Saturday night from May until October for the last 15 years or so. Always a good place to ride out a storm with several cold beers and a Rum Runner chaser. ;)

    Wharton State Forest 1966 Visitor Map nearly identical to 2024 draft Visitor Map

    I have lived literally 50 feet outside of Wharton for the last 40 years and have been hunting, fishing and trapping in Wharton for 56 years. I never needed and I never wanted anyone to tell me what a motorized vehicle route was. I always decided on my own by applying common sense and my...

    Wharton State Forest 1966 Visitor Map nearly identical to 2024 draft Visitor Map

    Here's one significant difference. The 1966 map was not issued with a looming dagger that would have made the use of all Wharton roads, other than those shown on that Candy Land-quality map, illegal. Whereas, the 2024 Map #9 does in fact come with that looming dagger, ready to be plunged into...

    Busy beavers gnawing away at New Jersey man’s patience, one tree at a time

    I successfully trapped two beaver this trapping season after several years of trying to get the permit. In my opinion, there is an unjustifiably low number of only 200 permits available across the entire State each year. I live in Beaver Zone 10 and there are just 8 permits available in my zone...
