Spot on...I could tear up a trail with a lawn tractor if I really wanted to. And I could tread lightly in a 3/4 ton Chevy with 44" tires if I wanted to (provided the trail was wide enough), it just all depends on how heavy your foot is, how concious you are of your surroundings, and how much...

Wow, I never knew it had gotten to that point with psudophedrine. Are you sure that you can't get it at all? It is a fact that psudophedrine is a main component of methamphetamine, but you need large quantities of it to make even a medium sized amount of meth. In know that in the past large...

Congrats man! I like the name too...When I was a camp counselor I had a camper named Jack who was one of the coolest little kids I ever knew.

That always sort of amused me. I'm assuming that the reason they don't want anyone in there is because if they were in there during target practice they'd almost certainly be killed or badly injured. So in order to keep you out they threaten to kill or badly injure you... :mrgreen: Of course...

Since I missed it last year I really want to go this year and bring the girlfriend. According to the website there are going to be video presentations about Jersey shore/Pinelands history, and "music of the pines." Has anyone heard of Valerie Vaughn, Gary Struncius, or Debbie Lawton? They are...

I can't figure it out-why can't the Jersey Devil "get his due." Bad pun I know. With all the success of Blair Witch and other horror films why can't a good director with a big budget and a decent special effects crew make scary-as-hell Jersey Devil movie?

The bizarre thing is that he was killed by an animal that usually only kills people who have extremely bad allergic reactions. He just had the unbelievable misfortune to get literally stabbed in the heart by its tail. What a way to go after handling countless poisonous snakes, huge crocodiles...

I think the confusion here is this: In my opinion, if you're going to use the Hi-Lift as a recovery device you should be carrying both chain AND straps. That being said, NEVER use the chain for pulling a vehicle with another vehicle, and NEVER use the strap to pull with the Hi-Lift. If...

Nothing worse than the "holier than thous." I can honestly say that I do believe in God, the Devil (The Christian interpretation and the Jersey interpretation), Heaven, and Hell, but organized religion is just too whacky and partisan these days. I was raised Catholic but don't really go...

I don't think Saxton does all that badly with Pinelands conservation. He was endorsed by the Sierra Club for the last three Congressional elections, which is pretty remarkable for a Republican. That being said he doesn't carry nearly as much clout as Don Young from Alaska who's been in...

Another concern I've found is that you never know what some idiot may have dumped there (either intentionally or it was just a low spot which is now covered with water) not to mention what others piled in there when they got stuck. How do I know? Once I was doing what any dumb 17 year old with...

Wow, I just realized that I typed "the trouble" in the subject line of this post...lol

Great, now I have to be worried about getting shot by some clown looking for bigfoot while I'm walking through the woods...

When I used to go out with some of the guys from the Land Cruiser club we would just agree on a channel before going out. You might want to check out www.the-jersey-devil.com for more info on this topic though. That site is pretty much dedicated to off-roading in the pines. I know that most...

In the post about the Forked River Mountains Guy and Gerania mentioned camping and encountering people who may or may not have been unsavory characters. Has anyone ever had trouble with anyone else out there? Whenever I'm riding around out there and I see a car just sitting or a person milling...

Guy, you're gonna make me cry with those pictures! I just sold my old FJ-40 about a month ago because it was rusting away too fast and I'm saving for a house. I had some great times in the pines in that truck-I'm sure the new owner is having a hell of a time getting the sand out of every crack...

If it were me I'd go for something as compact as possible such as a Jeep Wrangler, Toyota Compact Pickup, or something of that nature. To me a fullsize or an SUV is just too unwieldy in most areas of the pines save for the widest roads. If you're going to be by yourself I'm sure you'd have...

For the most part you can check out any of the 119 Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) in the state. Most of them (at least the ones I've been to) have a fairly extensive network of roads so that hunters/anglers can access many different areas. Be advised though that you may come across very...

Dunno where you work but if you have access to a McMaster-Carr (Phone book size yellow book) catalog they carry them. You would think they'd put a Tractor Supply Company somewhere in South Jersey...I think the closest one is in upstate New York somewhere. My aunt has one about 20 miles away in...

I've heard the same. I get poison ivy pretty bad so I was always tempted to try. However, I read this a while ago on Wikipedia: "The reaction caused by poison ivy, urushiol-induced contact dermatitis, is an allergic reaction. For this reason some people claim to be "immune" to its...
