Wharton SF is hosting a Jersey Devil hike. I have a seven year old I was thinking of taking on it, but I am not sure if he is too young. I don't want to tramatize him. One Wharton employee said that age 7 was boarderline. Does anybody have any experience with a Wharton sponsered Jersey...

Few human eyes have witnessed this first hand. I can't say the same for amphibious eyes however. Pics were taken with iphone. bog aster (i believe) and cranberry appropriately located on a hummock....in a bog this was, at times, a dangerous area with "quaking bogs"...

I bought this jeep cherokee from my drummer. I still have my legendary bronco. The bronco is a battle proven veteran of the pines. It also has more lift and larger, more aggressive tires than the Jeep could ever have without an aftermarket lift. My plan is to replace the bronco with the...

Found this little guy late last night as I was heading out for a bike ride. He was in front of my garage. For perspective, the circular thing in the bottom of the bucket is about the size of a nickle. I believe it is a northern brown snake, but perhaps some of the herp experts on the forum...

Sometimes I fantasize that people this stupid don't really exist, but then there's always a video to bring me back to reality.

I was driving on pasadena road today. I was west bound between the sand pit and route 72 when I thought a doe was crossing the road in front of me. It was an absolutely huge coyote. Biggest one I've seen yet. It was easily as large as a LARGE german sheppard except taller and less mass. It...

to deer lawn ornaments. I spend a great deal of time driving though suburban medford/mt laurel etc for work. In the dying light these ornaments have me braking every mile or so. If we didn't have so many suburban deer hanging about it wouldn't be such a big deal....but we do. So, I figured...

I did some fishing on the Mullica this past saturday. I got skunked. Not even a bite. Too much water I suppose. Anyway, it was still a great day in the woods. Coming around the bend a bunch of large red bellies were sunning themselves. A typical sight, and typically, they...

did some pike fishing yesterday morning. mostly small ones, a couple medium sized ones. high water levels and lots of sediment made it a little tough but the little guys were biting like crazy. hope you enjoyed the action photos. Jeff

I have been meaning to post this article for sometime. It is an extremely interesting read even if you aren't into pickerel fishing. It is from 1892. I thought it might make for a good front page article but i don't know if permission is needed in that instance. this is a link to a pdf...

I recently led a PBX hike in the retreat preserve in southampton. A portion of that hike was along friendship creek north of route 70. Bobpbx and I were discussing the headwaters of friendship creek primarily burrs mill brook. However, I seemed to recall that friendship creek had it's head...

I have it on first hand authority from law enforcement that there is looting in both LBI and Seaside. How they are getting there I don't know, maybe by boat. what a shame. There is a large police and military presence there now using helicopters and ground patrols to get it under control. Jeff

How is everyone? I'm okay. Jeff

About a month ago I was out on my motorcycle when I came across an area along route 72 with signs of old disturbance/habitation. I remebered being there before in the Pre-historic aerials years and wondering what might have been there. Well this time I went back to historic aerials and found...

Okay, are you ready to play? You don't have to name what the ruin was (but if you could that would be great because I don't know) just where it is located. I came across this recently and I have never heard of it discussed on the forum. Hint: it is in Lacey twp. If no one gets it in a few days...

An old boat sticking out of the marshes of the Great Bay. My five year old informed me that there is a pirate ghost guarding his treasure beneath it. Jeff

I promised in my last report that I would return to the shoal and yesterday morning at the break of dawn I did. My intent was to fish, of course, and to follow the stream up. the fishing was great. I caught between 20 and 30 fish. they ranged from 12" to 20" with the vast majority at about...

Fishing the Shoal at dusk. Coyotes howling in the distance. Fish Upstream Jeff

I was riding the motorcyle today on a very cool single track (enduro) trail in what appeared to be a former C.C.C. camp nursery. I was in pretty deep. well, I came around a turn and, low and behold, there was a young coyote. He ran about 25 yards and then turned and studyed me. I did the same...
