That's kind of creepy. That's like there was some crazy cult burning up sacrifices or something to the Jersey Devil. Not only that, but unattended Bon fires are definitely a big danger in our fire prone pine woods.

No I get it man I wasn't serious I was just joking. There was this cartoon on cartoon network on the late night segment they call adult swim called sea lab 2020. There was episode when one character slept with another character named Debbie, and there was two Debbie's on the show so when the...

I guess I can understand maybe he just didn't understand your intention was to help and he thought you were busting his balls. I agree that he is dumb and should have more sense than that. Hey, question, why did you mention he was black? HAha! Just kidding man, now I'm busting your chops...

What would it matter if he is tough? Is he gonna beat up the ranger so he won't get a ticket? Obviously he is dumb to not heed the advice, so if he were instead tough, how is that going advantageous in this situation for him?

This place looks like people can really get out there and not be bothered by a ranger presence. Might check this place out, anyone tell me a good place to explore?

Oh, I just want to say i don't fully hate the government, but.....wait what am I saying I do hate the government and their nonsensical stupidity! !

Thanks, through a try out basis, I have come to many of the conclusions you have listed, but yours are far more refined than mine. I did not know that about the being able to hike to your hearts content but that's great thanks for the heads up. I find that after a certain time , the rangers are...

Wow, I stand corrected. Are bears are fat, just like a lot of us in Jersey I guess.

It's a crazy thought, but most homeless people who decided to go live in one of the state forests of the NJ Pinelands would be endlessly harassed and probably eventually arrested or forced to leave. This would even be true of people newly homeless who had paid their taxes up until the life...

Lowest I did was a few years back when we were having a bitter snowy winter. There was weather alerts and everything, and it was reaching below 20 at night and below 30 with the wind chill. The rangers thought I was nuts to be in a hammock and would check on me often.I was using an under...

Yea, but just like it says, that was a record winner. Its very rare for them to reach that size here in Jersey because they are just like humans in this state. They too are densely populated, leaving them with less resources and the competition tends to relate to this matter. They say the...

Yeah, but don't fight back against a grizzly, or your toast!

I think that ranger was lying to you, I have never heard of any black bears in new jersey that grow to 700-800 pounds, that's Siberian tiger sized! I understand that black bears have poor vision, so the peaking behavior was probably secondary for its amazing ability to smell

Nothing crazy about it, but I too have had many people call me crazy for my love of the woods, and preference for a hammock to sleep in on the trail.I love winter camping though, and I haven't really had trouble staying warm in my Hammock Bliss, I do layer up, and sleep with to fleece bag liners...

Nice, did you feel threatened though? I have had the luck of stumbling onto 2 while hiking in the highlands. Once at Jenny Jump on a Midnight halloween hike and it scared the bejesus out of me and my un-outdoorsy legally blind friend who accompanied me. I was scared because I am aware coming...

Curious, why do you call them krazy?

Oh, woops.... sorry dude I didn't mean to come off as a jerk. No offense taken I hope?

Besides, those sightings are not uncommon in many places in NJ. Bears have been reported in every county in NJ. I live in woodbridge and we have had some sightings even here.

I don't doubt it, I was just remarking on my personal experience. For the vastness of the pinelands forests and the ratio of black bears living there in contrast to a place like Jenny Jump Mountain let's say, with far more bears in that place in a smaller area you are bound to see them and...

Yeah, it was a joke. You know, with a little sarcasm.
