Tree Removal has been going on at the RR tracks and Quaker Bridge Road for awhile now. It was being done by a commercial company, I didn't note the name. They widened an old road and this morning I decided to explore it. It eventually led to the Sewell Gun Club. There was a large tree blocking...

I am traveling roads I haven't been down in a year or more. It is dry from Hampton Parh to High Crossing, Mines Spung Road, East Stokes Road south of Hampton Road. The only significant puddels I am seeing are at High Crossing but they are shrinking.

Last fall while reading the July issue of EAA Sport Aviation, I came upon a short article about a famous race plane from the 1930's. It was about the restoration of the Gee Bee Special , the Q.E.D., with a mention of its last owner, Mexican pilot Francisco Sarabia. Up until the time of it's...

Coors Light right now.

between Carranza Rd and Hampton Park. It is vey soft, sand does not make a good road.

A county crew was stripping the surface off of the bridge over the Batsto this morning. I hope they blend it into the road better.

When we drove by this morning two workers were pulling up the pump.

Yesterday I found this beauty in the middle of the road, about 18 inches. I wish I could have gotten better pictures but there were cars coming and we just made it. Am I really seeing diagonal stripes? What is it? We are seeing lots of turtles too. Red belly, spotted and box. Turkey Beard...

Last week I noticed work on Carranza Road to Friendship. Bull dozers, loader and comercial dump trucks with fill. At least it's compactable fill not sand which would just move again. A decient job way overdo. They also worked on the road from 532 @ Bordentown Gun Club to the little, but sturdy...

I tripped over this little guy this morning. It was about 6 inches long and as thick asd a pencil. I am having trouble with it as it might be really young. I was on my belly and it wouldn't hold still. Head closeup Thanks, Ed

On Wednesday I met up with Deepexplorer to visit an area we rarely see. We met at Wells Mills Park and then from there headed down Jones Road to find the mountain. That road needs some serious maintainance. We didn't know the roads so we just winged it, taking any road that headed in the right...

This is so new I can smell the paint. I followed truck tracks leading from the Skit Bridge toward the RR tracks, right past the "NO MOTORIZED VEHICLES" sign. He drove .3 miles through the woods. http://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.75976047258385&lng=-74.67548847198486&z=17&type=nj1995&gpx=...

This morning at the FPP. We also saw a turtle sunning on a log, too far for a picture. Yesterday somewhere in the pines. Lots of gnats too! Ed

Last summer we did allot of hiking off of Push Line Road in the no mans land between Mannis Duck Pond and Jemima Mount. The area is high, with little water and few flies. While walking down one of the little used roads I barely noticed a subtle trail. It was obviously not a deer trail, had seen...

Yesterday updates were offered to both Basecamp and my Oregon 450 when I opened Basecamp 3.2.2 . The new versions are Oregon 450 5.50, Basecamp 3.3.1. I installed both updates. When I opened Basecamp 3.3.1 and pluged in my Oregon I received the message "There was a problem communicating with...

From The SandPaper, Jan 11, 2012. " the two have been working to reposition a section of the trail that skirts the roadway for about two miles in Bass River State Forest." "Also, there's a section of the trail that winds through the Franklin Parker Preserve that is going to be altered"...

This is really last years news, but maybe like me, some of you haven't been there recently. The heavy rains really took a toll on the pines roads and beaches. There are two washed out gates effectively isolating a boat launch from vehicle traffic...

Does anyone know of a coastal New Jersey chart for the 450? Thanks, Ed

Boy did I learn this the hard way. I was using a friends GPS the other day, I don't get mine until Christmas, and put it in my pocket without locking the screen. There's no telling what buttons got pushed. Well the touch screen stopped working on certain parts of the screen. I couldn't get to...
