    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    Select some anecdotes, add wide sweeping generalisations and offer a solution in such a way as to marginalize anyone who disagrees with it. Yack I spent 5 hours in the Waterford area of Wharton yesterday. I saw a couple in a canoe at Goshen and two enduro riders on Sandy Causeway. Actually...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    I was down Sandy Causeway today also. I agree that the rain is going to make a mess of it. Many spots seem to have been made worse. It looks like a disaster. There was also someone getting stuck in a Prius. How they got as far in as they did I don't know but by the time they were free the sun...

    ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton

    I just found out about this yesterday, read this thread and am fired up. Other than signing petitions and contacting gov. reps. I would like to do more to help. Hands on documenting of the roads that are being closed. I can cover alot of ground on the recently closed roads on my fat bike. That...

    New study on Lyme Disease

    Ticks are my biggest concern when riding my bicycle in the pines. I check myself when I get out of the woods and then again when I get home. I don't use bug spray but shower as soon as I get home. I've only ever found two on me and both times it was on the double check search. My sister is a...

    There’s something for everyone in the Black Run Preserve in Marlton

    I ride my bike here at least 3 times a week. Pitching in when I can. There is still some clean up to do but it's mostly some illegal dumping in a couple areas. It is much cleaner than it was. That was a pretty good write up describing the marked trails. It's really starting to get popular this...

    Forest Fire at Atsion

    I was on the south west side of Atsion Lake at one of my favorite rest spots when I spotted a bit of smoke. It must have just started. A few minutes later. It's very dry right now.

    New Guy Wants to Talk Kayaks and Canoes

    Well, we put in at Atsion Lake last Sunday for a couple of hours. It was a perfect day. My son took to it pretty quick after a few pointers. The lake and surrounding trees seemed more peaceful and beautiful than I remember. We both needed some stress release and we got it. I figure I'll take...

    Hail

    I work in Chester County Pa. We had golf ball size hail here with real strong winds. It sounded like 25 drummers on the roof. A co-workers hood on his new Kia is loaded with small dents now. Our vantage point gave us a real good view of the storm coming across the valley. It was a wall of grey...

    Allergies?

    I only started suffering from seasonal allergies the last 6-7 years. Allergy medication seems to make me feel disconnected. Horseradish is my go to for relieving congestion. Heap some onto a roast beef sandwich and it clears my sinus out quick. Just a quick wiff of the jar occasionally through...

    New Guy Wants to Talk Kayaks and Canoes

    Thanks for the tips and ideas. That Hornbeck sounds great. Lightweight is a big plus. I'm not a big guy. I've done enough of my share of carrying/ dragging canoes from lake to lake to long for something that light. I'm very seriously thinking of building my own wood kayak(s). My Dad used to...

    Sunshine Lakes, Voorhees, NJ - 1939

    That is cool. I had no idea about that lake. Several years back, I had a customer that lived on the south western corner of those lakes. He offered to let me take one of his one man submersibles out on the lake. I'm a bit claustrophobic so I declined.

    New Guy Wants to Talk Kayaks and Canoes

    Hi, I've been lurking around here a bit lately and decided to jump in. So much good reading. Thank You. I love this state, it's history and many of the people in it. I'm in Atco (grew up in Haddon Twp.) and badly want to get a kayak and a canoe and hit the rivers. I grew up canoeing Atsion...
