    Deep Run Again

    We were at Deep Run on 10/12 and the pipe was not cleaned out. I was able to walk right down beside it easily. Today I noticed that heavy equipment had removed the mud and sticks surrounding the pipe. As Scott has mentioned online the channel was lined with wood and sticks directing the...

    Stone Searching Fall & Winter 2024/2025

    We did our first test explore today to search for a stone that I have been wanting to find for years. The beavers have the place fully flooded, but not today. We visited a few places to plunge into the woods and realized there is only one way to go. So very soon we will make an attempt and...

    Today in Wharton And Yesterday At Harleigh Cemetery

    We were driving from Quaker Bridge to Lower Forge this morning around 7:30 and came upon two vehicles just before Lower Forge in the road where it is very sandy. The one in the back was from Philly and did not look stuck but the one in the front may have been. There was a go around by them so I...

    We have been exploring the Penn Swamp area off and on this year. Today we first stopped along a road nearby and Jessica saw this on the back side of a tree. I have been at that tree every year for the past ten and never saw it. USGS Survey Mark A while back someone I know told me he found...

    Muggy Dune Walk

    We spent the early morning walking the dune just north of Dave Amato's place after not visiting it in 9 years. It was a muggy walk for sure. Then And Now for the tree stand. The ladder was moved to another location and locked with two large Master locks. Jessica's phone was next to a...

    Turtle And A Hognose

    All, We went out today to look for new locations of Morning Glory, and on the way we stumbled on this male box turtle. However, the shell was the most featureless shell I have ever viewed. It was a fiesty one and even tried to bite me. Jessica was thinking it was not a box because of the shell...
