Sorry man, I get passionate about some things and this is one of them......NJCF is a good outfit....I get a little defensive when it comes to that stuff....

I should note that the word 'abused' might be poor.....I respect the cranberry growers there hard workers and a big part of the barrens.

I would say that 90% of the 50 species falls outside of the area that was used as agriculture. The cranberry bogs is what I was referring to and in their current state hold little wildlife or at least not as much as they should....which is why they are restoring them. Most of the soil inside...

Actually to add to this, your question of "Why participate in improving the area and then be kept out of it? Your so off base on this its unbelievable.....in fact I've been volunteering with this organization and have been given equipment(snake telemtry equipment, hats, shirts, food, etc). I'm...

Freerider, I would suggest you do your homework before criticizing what NJCF is doing and how they are doing it. The preserve is open to the public and has always been. The bogs they are restoring are fenced in because of deer eating up the white cedars. If your bent out of shape because NJCF...

I hope they keep setting the woods on fire......wish they would drop a flare up by bamber too....that area off mule road could use a good burn, drop a flare down by by the mullica too why were at it.

My 4 wheel drive recently broke on my jeep and I feel the same nervousness when going to spots now. Most roads you can ride with 2 wheel, but I would look out around places like rockwood road and sections of wharton. I got my cherokee stuck about 2.5 miles down the road on rockwood and had to...

Guy can't get a good look at the first turtle, was it a spotted?

Simply put that is fing awesome.....I've heard some real good sound files through Al(manumuskin) but this one is really the coolest...... I heard some coyotes in the early am in chatsworth last saturday just at sunrise.....good stuff.

There is very few critters that can be guarentee's in the pines, but fence swifts, fowler's toads, and pine warblers seem to always show up. Most of the cool critters are so fossorial that they are rarely seen.....

Could be a couple people then if he was young.....possibly a biologist I know. Bob knows Lewis but it doesn't sound like him.

Scott, I couldn't agree with you more on the CO's. I spend 20 hours a week in the woods and have seen one conservation officer in 5 years. I've had meetings with conservation officers about being more vigilant in regards to illegal collecting of reptiles to not much avail.....it is quite...

This is interesting just last week I was talking to a friend of my brother in laws about a bear he had on video on cedar lane in chatsworth from 04. We were on the topic of how the sightings seem to die off as it seemed like their was alot in 04ish??.......I do think bears may be down here in...

Greg, the big lake is open.....canoe is ok and I'm pretty sure fishing is.

Guys, if you really want I can look in to why it was closed, as I volunteer out there. But I've been going out there since early spring before the swimming season and the area had no trash. Every weekend I see about 4-6 cars there and there not young kids. There college kids and older...

Wow that is somewhat depressing.......looks like some real nice woods in the background......I don't know that area well but is the surrounding woods still as piney as that pic implies.......or have the hardwood trees started to take over.....

Yes the access point you all are referring to is the one. It was open until 3 weeks ago. What I can tell you is NJCF is very serious about their property there, they put forth a serious effort and money to purchase the land since it has high levels of many rare things. The land steward out...

Mike, I volunteer out at that preserve for the landowners. I can't say why specifically it was closed off as I'm not sure....however, knowing the people who work out there I would think the area was receiving too much attention from people thinking it was an area to drink and swim. The area...

The lizard is a fence swift.........probably the pine most common herp. Nice pic.

Not sure if they are edible but I believe some are endangered and would be illegal to eat......I would check the NJ Fish and Game site for specifics. http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/tandespp.htm
