anyone have the phone number for this office? they said they would call me back on friday but no cigar...

The "notable" sights on this glorified dirt road are the Shaller Grave next to Egg Harbor Lake and the old boy's camp at the end of Naegli Rd (complete with virgin mary statue out front). And yes the guy in the house will come outside if you stay in front of his property long enough but I don't...

Catawba was what started it all for me when I was 7 years old going exploring on Sundays with my old man. This place is not much more than a single grave off a raised mound of earth on the side of the road. And a road (West Avenue) named after the family that lived there. Etna Furnace site...

What city?

I feel a little ashamed asking this... But where is the hq of bass river state forrest? I have an interview aceduled to work there this summer. It just occured to me that I do not know where it is. Thanks

list making? i don't understand...

That's right... I just purchased my summer vehicle of choice! It's a 1990 Chevy S-10 Blazer 4X4 with the 4.3 V6. After a little work to get it on the road (needs a rear and a major tune up), this will become the ultimate Pine Barrens exploration vehicle. Don't worry, I will not be...

You make a good point about Beck's books, however... Beck's audience, by default, is one that is mostly interested in folklore and history. In my definition, this is not a mainstream crowd and is hopefully a more mature older audience. That is why I emphasize that urban exploartion articles...

Please read the following in the same way you would read the "opinions section" of your local newspaper. This is my opinion and un-researched theory on the demise of urban exploration. Feel free to contact me directly if you wish to debate these points or ask me any questions about the...

If you are all refferring to the plot of cleared land that I think you are talking about, then that clearing has existed since at least August of 2003!! I remember taking the "back way" from Apple Pie Hill at night and driving through a very large clearing thinking to myself "what the **** is...

I'm a little confused as to why this particular person is even wasting their time being a moron... What caused this person so much concern that they felt the need to act foolish on a website of this nature? I have seen similar behavior on websites geared towards middle schoolers when I was...

In all respect... If you love the Pasadena ruins as much as you claim to, then why would you submit it to Weird NJ magazine????

If the material is indeed at Rutgers, I will be happy to go check it out and report my findings...

This is news to me. I guess they finally realized that the property was being trashed. I happen to know that the property is slated to appear in the next issue of Weird NJ too. Even more reason to explore now before there is nothing left.

I highly suggest that anyone who has never been there, try to visit the Atlantic Brick Mfg Company soon. I live all of 15 mins away from here and I visit this site every couple weeks or so. Every time I go there, there is evidence of a recent paintball game present. Every time I visit and...

Ben, is it possible you were thinking of the building on Savoy Blvd across from Pioneer Smelting affectionately called "The Sex Plant"?

those postcards are incredible... primary sources such as these are great ways to learn more about history. thanks Barry for enlightening us to these gems. it is amazing the changes that this furnace endured over the 2 year period from 1898 to 1900. that 1900 postcard picture is in the book...

when i visit the camp in the summer, i will be sure to be respectful as i always am in visiting any site. not to offend anyone, but isnt this place just an abandoned campground? it isnt really a historical site or anything right?

wow, finally some directions to this mystery spot. i can add this to my summer list of places to explore. i cant say i know what i am looking at on that topo map, it would be a little easier to get my bearings if there was at least 1 road posted.

this summer i was thinking instead of working at pep boys, why not try something a little more interesting. does anyone have any information about getting a summer job with the parks department working somewhere in the pine barrens? i dont care what the job is... i can learn. i just thought...
