Went to DIX WMA today and found three more stone,some nice ones too.I looked for eight and found four.One was right next to a road and I found a ribbon hanging where it should been but it was right on the road edge.Three more I had to plot over 30 stations to get to and I think I made a booboo...

I"d rather be ripped off by the bugs then other people.Nothing but a bunch of thieves and dope heads around here anymore.I know Dividing Creek has a few too but they go somewhere else to steal because everyone knows everyone there and it's too easy to get busted.The bug are real bad there and...

Dividing creek on the other hand is still a decent place to live.The only thing there that gets stolen is blood by skeeters and meat by greenheads.

Ditto for Millville and Laurel Lake

Yeah the winter has been a big disappointment down here after reading all those long range forecasts saying we were going to get hammered with awesome snow storms this winter.I mean if your going to freeze my rear end off at least make it worth it.I"m not as fond of snow as I used to be before...

The one off the hartman map is not far from and NW of the other three we were talking about.I checked the other route in today and it's solid posted as well. Have to find a legal way in ;)

Been out two days in a row and headed out tomorrow if it don't rain.yesterday I looked for five stones and the first one was just a monument,next three i found and last one was missing but I found the sign.The two I couldn't find no doubt because the first one was next to a road and the other...

The second batch are quite nice Guy.

I"ve always wondered why they call red bellies red bellies.Their bellies are in no way red.I guess because red headed woodpecker is taken already by a bird with a much better claim to the title.

would like to go but have to go in Hoot Owl that night. I"d be wiped out. Shame, I love Grass (The kind you listen too)

I"ve watched Alone in the wilderness. Now that was a good documentary.Thats what I"m talking about. Staying In and not coming back out. I never come out because I want out,it's because i have to.You can't do in NJ what Proenneke did in Alaska. They'd legislate you right out of the Barrens real...

Ummm? I was 32. Thats means I"m an old geezer now! I feel like it anyway in my bones if not in my mind.

Ed This is what gets on my nerves about all the new survival shows like Bear Grylls and Survivorman and though better even Dual Survivor.The first two are way too sensational but all three are teaching you basics but the big plan is "To Get Out".I want a show that teaches you how to live if you...

A good point for night nav.I've done this myself.

Silva compasses are the best!

In mountainous or desert terrain often a map is all thats needed.You can orient just by looking at the land.In the Barrens thats a hard thing to do when your lucky if you can see 50 ft ahead of you. My gr gran father got lost in the bear swamp back in the 60's and had to spend the night till his...

I"ve probably got twenty more stones that I plotted off of those online deeds.Just plotted another one in the swamp behind my mother in laws.land Trust bought the swamp.Used to belong to her trailer park.

Yes knowing where the sand roads or blacktop for that matter is good for "Baselining" You can aim off purposely so that when you hit your baseline you know weather to turn left or right to get back to your car.You can use a swamp the same way but you know them Barrens.Sometimes the roads and the...

Went out stone hunting again today. Looked for seven and found five....not bad. The first one I have named "The Prison Stone because it sets on Fairton Federal Prison's southern border. Had about a 4000 ft walk from Ramah rd. to get to it. The next one was quite a long walk as well and is the...

I have thought off and on about doing a write up to explain how to use the shadows of trees or even your own shadow as a sun compass to keep yourself going in a straight line without having to constantly refer to a compass or gps.I was recently watching a you tube video by Dave Canterbury on how...
