    Beaver Swamp WMA

    I don't see how it's off track.We're still discussing the Timber Beaver swamp.How did said cypress tree get to Timber Beaver swamp? If you set up a flag pole on the duck blind in the original post and then went around and climbed said cypress you would be able to see the flag from the cypress so...

    Beaver Swamp WMA

    I seriously doubt this tree is wild. I have been to the cypress swamps in southern Delaware and I seriously doubt Cypress nuts could have fell in a stream and floated into the bay and all the way across and up Sluice Creek without succumbing to salt water.In any case cypress nuts I do believe...

I crossed it where i did because i had an old book that had all the topos to south jersey with vegetation overlays and it stated there was a large tract of cedar in the middle...

I know Bamber wasn't covered a couple years ago.Haven't scanned that area on Birds Eye since then.I remember Timber beaver being a very nice maple swamp,on the other hand the Great Cedar Swamp just north...

    Yes that ridge is gorgeous.There is an old road/trail down the length of it from the road,or there was back in the 90's anyway.

    I"ve been in that duck blind.it's huge.I was bushwacking to the beech island just south of it and missed the island and hit the duck blind.From the blind I could see the island.This was in my map and compass day when you had to hold a bearing for a mile to hit a 50 yard long island with no pine...

    the first mushroom shot(the patech) looks like a too far gone patch of Honey Shrooms,a very good edible but too far gone.The single shroom looks like Amanita muscaria?
