    The NEW Beer Thread

    Yuengling is available all over North Jersey. Ditto with Western PA. Yuengling is also advertising in bars like crazy...approaching Coors Light saturation.

    That's one reason why I gave up buying bottled water.

    Batona Trail Re-route

    Molly & I hiked the southern end of the Batona Trail Saturday morning...from the new southern terminus to Martha Bridge and back....almost 16 loooong miles. The weather forecast called for light snow, so I was anticipating a pleasant walk through gentle snowflakes. Instead, it began to rain by...

    Whippoorbill's gift to us

    I purchased this book and CD set for my son a few years back after wondering "what was that noise?" during our camping trip to Wharton. I've even used the wood frog call while walking around the Great Swamp NWR last March to get the wood frogs to call back to me.

    2 turtle hunters pulled from icy northern NJ river

    This section of the Passaic flows in from the Great Swamp NWR, which is still relatively clean. However, Berkeley Heights is a typical suburban NJ town, so I would guess that the Passaic River in that area is loaded with nitrogen from suburban lawn fertilizers and high fecal coliform from...

    Mac OS X Crashing

    Actually, Apple hid the home library folder in Lion. I agree it is a PITA to find. I just had to go into Terminal. Here's instructions for Mac users on Lion or Mountain Lion on finding the home library folder.

    2 turtle hunters pulled from icy northern NJ river

    I was wondering the same thing. I've gone exploring along the Passaic River in Berkeley Heights and I've found snapping turtles, red-bellied sliders, painted turtles and a Brown Snake (Storeria dekayi) but only in the spring or summer.

    Baeeiers at Godfrey Bridge

    We camped at Godfrey Bridge last April and we weren't able to have our traditional riverside campsite since they were removed by DEP. It was a PITA lugging my beach chair and sand toys to the river from our campsite back in the woods. Hawkins looked pretty sad with all of the tree-cutting...

    5th Annual Winter Hang @ Batona Camp

    Hey I think I spotted some of you there on Jan. 27. I was impressed with the amount of people at Batona Camp in the dead of winter. I was wandering through with my dog on our way to Apple Pie Hill. Here are some photos: http://instagram.com/p/VAUMpIqYRN/ http://instagram.com/p/VAWZESqYU6/...

    Climbing Trees Does NOT Keep You Safe From Black Bears

    My dog treed a bear in Norvin Green SF a few years back. I was pretty impressed how quickly the bear took off as soon as my dog spotted it. My dog is a fast runner and was many yards behind the bear before it clambered up a tree.

    Remembering Howard Boyd

    Thank you for your write-up. I never had the opportunity to meet Dr. Boyd, but I read his books and enjoyed them thoroughly. Hos work definitely made me look at the Pine Barrens more closely.

    In the Midwest, Hunt Is On for Elaborate Deer Stands

    This is New Jersey. It won't be long before local tax assessor discovers your McMansion in the trees and slaps a $5,000 property tax bill on it! :p
