Been pricing Pine barrens books and found Amazon to have really good prices. Mcphee's "Pine barren's" is going for around $5 new and cheaper used. Even though I have an original copy I'm gonna scoop up a few extras to give out to people. "Paddling the jersey Pines" was like $7 new. Boyd's...

I am going to try to get out early Friday Morning and do a bit of a hike. I have not decided exactly where I will go yet but thinking about heading down 70 towards Forked River. Any suggestions for an interesting spot or anyone else planning on being in the woods Fri Morning let me know I'll...

I'm reading Beck's first "Forgotten Towns" book right now. I was wondering is it still possible to drive the tuckerton road straight through. I drove it a while back till it turned into a sand road. I vaguely remember coming to a point that seemed like private property and/or a dead end. It...

I work with individuals who have suffered traumatic brain injuries. There is one particular man I have worked with for the past eight years. Before his stroke and subsequent annyeurisms, he was an avid hunter. He had a Beagle named Super Snooper and loved to hunt deer. His hunting days are...

I've heard a lot of discussion about the Great Swamp. I was wondering if anyone has ever been to the Great Swamp in Basking Ridge. All the Jersey Recreation books mention it as a neat spot. Are there any similiarities between the two Great Swamps. I realize they are in two different...

This past Friday, I took a drive to Friendship. I have been there before but never really looked that closely or spent more than a couple minutes there. I loved it! I checked out a bunch of foundations/cellar holes. One cellar hole was much bigger than the others, set back off the main road...

I work in Voorhees, near the Main St. Complex. This is certainly not the pine Barrens but the areas around Alluvium Development and Cooper Road have some Pine barren characteristics to them. Cooper road eventually runs over 73 right into the pines. Anyway in a fenced area that is a landfill...

Good afternoon folks! Do any of y'all ever get together for canoeing/kayaking? One route I would like to try is the Oswego Lake to Oswego river to Wading. The water level has been too low each time I have tried it. I have had great experiences on the Batsto (turtles everywhere). and The...
