Update: I went to the Shamong Twp. town meeting last night with one of my friends. The drainage systems have been finished but they are waiting for quotes to take down 3 larger trees (36" in diameter). During the time for public comment, there was a woman who lived on Atsion Rd. who...

Ben, My Canon Powershot A70 has been acting up recently. Sometimes, the picture on the view screen on the back on the camera is all distorted. I'm not sure what the problem could be as this camera is only a year and a half old. Some pictures get those lines transposed on them. BTW We were...

Hi all, I uploaded a bunch of pictures I took today at Moore's Meadow Rd. There was still some ice/snow on the bogs so they looked amazing during the sunset. I posted them on my webiste and will soon upload them to this site. Moore's Meadow Pictures There's one I stiched together as...

And the environmental dominoes continue to fall under the current regime . . . Forest chiefs get more power in Bush plan The Associated Press Updated: 1:21 p.m. ET Dec. 22, 2004 WASHINGTON - Managers of the nation’s 155 national forests will have more leeway to approve logging and...

I saw those too, Boyd. To be honest, I've never seen or heard of a drainage problem there, though. Is there any chance new development might be occuring in the near future or is this land in the Preservation area of the Pinelands Management Act? Justin

I did notice a few larger trees inside the staked area with two white paint stripes on them. Looks to me like they'll be taking them down. I think I saw at least 3 or 4. Justin

It's not even smart to speed through there. The section of forest after that gigantic mansion is like a deer gauntlet. There's another two cents from me. I think up up to a nickel for today . . . Justin

Not sure if anyone travels Atsion Rd. between Rte. 206 and Willow Grove (it's my daily route to exploring in the pines) but it seems they are widening the road by a substantial amount and intruding into the forest. There are stakes about 3 to 4 feet off of the tarmac on each side. I'll get a...

Exactly, forces you to get real tires . . . just kidding :p. I'm really happy with my BFG M/T's and I'm definitly getting them or the new A/T KO's when I upgrade to 35X12.50's. I've attributed my new off-roading kick to my lack of a go-cart as a child. I love just driving through the Pine...

Don't paint it up too nice, or else those narrow Pine Barrens trails will really get your paint. I plan on throwing some 35" tires (as if 33's weren't big enough) on it this spring along with some black wheels. Should look really cool as I'm trying to get rid of all the chrome and leave it...

Not to go off topic, but I had a question about the Friendship Bogs. I've been to Friendship many times, mostly at night during clear nights because it's a great spot to stargaze. Just last Saturday, I took a road from Batsto past Hawkins Bridge and ended up at Friendship. I've never come in...

Is this truly necessary here at this board? I gather that this will just spark heated nothingness and someone will end up getting banned. I've seen it before. Justin

With the top off? Yeah it was me. Justin

Evening all, I haven't seen this posted but as you all know, October is Pinelands appreciation month, and the eve is upon us. There is an event at Whitesbog this Sunday, October 3rd from 10 PM to 4 PM. I know there is going to be music, food, and presentations/booths from PPA (I think)...

Just my two cents, I was the unfortunate recipient of about 100+ chigger bites all over my body from camping Friday night. Went to the doctor today and got some prescription steroid medicine used to treat poison ivy because I react so badly to them. So . . . yes, they're still out there...

I'll hold my tongue, but it's really hard to after only recently becoming a Toyota truck owner. Just another form of prejudice and pride if that's the reason you act like that when someone is in need. That type of snobbery will come back to bite you in the keester. Keep karma in mind. If you...

Awesome picture. I was out with some friends at Friendship tonight (ignore the pun). The fog over the marsh/creek was pretty eerie. BTW . . . The new 4Runner is a beast off road. I've been out the past 3 nights exploring all sorts of places. Got plenty to check off the list still. Justin

Guy, With the rust aspect of the Toyotas, that's exactly why I bought this one. I've been searching for over 3 months for a decent 1st generation 4Runner and most of them had full 4 fender body rot, not to mention the rear tailgate and bed rot. This one has been garage kept most of it's...

Hey all, Haven't been around in awhile. I'm in the midst of leaving my current job and starting anew somewhere better and I haven't had the time to come aboard often to write some posts. I bring good news. My search for a capable Pine Barrens vehicle has ended. This weekend, I purchased a...

Guy, No, I don't yet. But usually we go with about 4 to 8 people, and most of them aren't willing to use waders just to go camping one night. I like the rope swing we have, it's more Swiss Family Robinson-esque. 8) Justin
