Another day stone hunting in Cumberland County. We started out looking for a corner to the old Burcham Farm on the maurice River.The farm is the only still operating farm reclaimed from the river by dyking over 200 years ago.Until a few years ago it was owned by Burchams who muy friend in the...

Your right.I can't find it on any historical topo either.Never been to it or seen it.Is it visible from the road? Yes cedar grows ramrod straight though when they get old especially in open sunlight they can have very cool twisted lower limbs.These limbs shed in deep shade and tight growing...

Gorgeous.Me and Mommas dream trip

Yeah usually when the dog makes a mistake it's because it's young and inexperienced,not because it's nose isn't top notch.Sometimes I think I"d like a nose like a dogs but someone would kill me first time I ran over and sniffed their butt.Think I"ll just keep my third rate sniffer:-)

Don't give em any ideas.If they do that Cape May will break off and flow out into the ocean.

If they got the dogs there withing a couple days or before a rain and they didn't find Him I"d say he's probably not in there. Ain't much that can beat a well trained dog nose.

Did they try dogs back when this happened?

Did you leave the coveralls in the woods or retrieve them? People that are lost and frightened often do crazy stuff like strip and run naked till collapsing.Fear probably makes em feel stifled and running will overheat them.They'll even run across a blacktop road and straight into the woods on...

I like it when you drop down into the bowl you can't see 539 or the tower or anything manmade.Another area like it east of 539 where you drop down in a hollow and are engulfed by the Plains with no planes in view.

I bushwacked across that swamp once looking for the cedar in the core shown on the vegetation maps from the 50's.There is no cedar.It's a maple gum swamp through and through with the biggest piles of briars I ever had the pleasure of crossing.We actually ran across fell over trees like squirrels...

That monument next to the creek looks like it has a pointer on it pointing to the river.Is there a stone in the river? :-)

Looks like a racer but hard to tell that far away.

I didn't know who Rasputin was so I did what everyone does.I Googled him.He looks like a couple of my Sparks kin with longer hair.Even has the same wild look in his eye.

It's quite strange that the Ukrainians and Russians can't seem to stand each other over there but come all the way over here and choose to settle together:-)

As a side note I regularly use Weymouth road to get to the Barrens and the other day I noticed a green sign as I went to make my right off of 54 onto Weymouth that said Settlement of New Kuban.I wondered what that was? I had seen the old church many times but did not know what it was and why it...

Never thought of that.I probably had a brushed out Mountain Man beard down to my chest at that time as well. Maybe what i thought was ornryness was just plain shock and awe on their faces?

I used to park my truck off the well travelled sand roads and take walks at night.In the summer you get treated to insect and frog aounds and occasional owls,whipoorwills and coyotes and the flies at least are gone but in winter the night sky is at it's best and the sound of nothing but the wind...

I have run into drunken partiers with guns shooting randomly into the woods in the dark and it happened tp be in my direction.I was young and bold then so i circled around and came in behind em and they turned out to be a pretty good bunch but all quite drunk.Wanted me to camp with em.I was...

I have heard of Bobcat sightings down here my whole life and I think I seen one in the early 80's west of Union lake but it was so fast i can't swear it.Whatever it was it went about four feet up a tree trunk.Looked at me,hissed a low growl and jumped off the tree into the swamp and was gone.It...

I agree they are a danger to pets but I think folks are going overboard if their losing sleep at night worrying about being attacked by coyotes. Wanna see something much more dangerous then a coyote? Look in the mirror.The coyotes know it too.
