    Howardsville Stones

    Guy I think what you may be seeing is an old time surveyor using locally available objects for monumentation of the property. It is always interestring to me to find corners on large remote tracts marked by non-native stone materials (i.e. granite or marble) It wasn't easy finding those...

    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    I have a recorded copy of the 1885 "Map Of The Town of Waterford" from the Camden County Courthouse and it was prepared for the Raleigh Land and Improvenment Company. I keep a copy in work for surveying purposes and I don't have one in front of me now but I remeber that the office for Raleigh...

    Thanksgiving

    Just took my usual nightly loop through the woods and all the timid woodland creatures seemed to be battened down for Thanksgiving too. Enjoy your dinners everyone and stay thankful all year. Scott

    A rare Sunday outing

    Baiting for deer is legal throughout all of the seasons in NJ. The law was changed about 10 years ago, primarily as a result of heavy lobbying from the bow hunters. The old baiting law prohibited hunting within 300' of a baited area, IF you were off the ground in an elevated stand. If you...

    Two More Hanover Stones Found

    Guy Declination increases every year and a lot of maps, i.e. NOAA charts that I use for marine navigation, will indicate the annual increase in the compass rose on the chart. The annual increase in our area is about 6 minutes per year which is substantial. All USGS and most technical maps...

    Photography excursion

    Banjo I can't make it out this weekend but I can suggest an area for you to investigate. In my opinion the Friendship Bogs are one of the most beatiful areas in the pines. I know some other members here who would agree. I spent some time back there last year and I was amazed. I would try to...

    Trip report: Shiver Me Timbers and Blow Me Down

    Poor Boy Scout Bob! I feel the cold settin' in my bones just reading that. I had a bad Scout experience in the early 70's too. 3 day camp, 3 days of rain, laying in water in the tent. Woodstock for Boy Scouts without the music and hallucinogens. :mrgreen: Scott

    Trip report: Shiver Me Timbers and Blow Me Down

    I saw my friend Bill last night and he was still talking about the big swamp! He told me of a hunting trip back there about 40 years ago. He was driving down the road that leads from Westcoat out towards Atsion and Lock's bridge. He came across a dishevelled hunter, soaked to the bones and...

    Trip report: Shiver Me Timbers and Blow Me Down

    I sent this thread to an older friend of mine and it brought back a lot of fond memories for him. He is in his late 70's now with 2 knee replacements but still very active in hunting and fishing. He and his friends made several attempts at crossing the Great Swamp almost 50 years ago on...

    clarks landing graves,gloucester furnace etc.

    As far as Amotol is concerned, you must have missed the NJ Fish and Wildlife Hammonton Creek WMA sign on Moss Mill. Most of the track is part of the HC WMA and not privately owned. I hunted there the first year the state acquired Amotol. Remnants of the track are still visible and I remember a...

    Pines Clean-Up

    I coined the phrase in a post in September where I was explaining that the State Forest Fire Service had royally f'd up a long stretch of road down here. I stated that the "4x4 kids" have found it and the trenching and destruction of a formerly passable road was taking place. The 4x4 kids are...
