    New Garmin Oregon 700 series

    The device doesn't lose connectivity with the GPS satellites, even if it doesn't have cellular contact. The maps that are downloaded in advance are georefrenced, so that when you look at the map, the GPS coordinates from the GPS are sent to the app, which then locates you on the map within the...

    New Garmin Oregon 700 series

    With some apps (like the one I use, Gaia GPS) they have the ability to download maps locally so you don't need to rely on cell coverage. In fact, the one I use as my gps doesn't even have a cellular plan. I have the Topos, National Map, satellite, and even the "MAP" downloaded in advance.

    Penn Branch Mountain Bike Trail

    Finally got out to do this yesterday with a buddy. I'm in pretty decent shape and let me say this was intense! Ed was not kidding about the switchbacks. Probably not even 10 ft of it was straight. It was a continuous effort of turning left, right, up and down little hills. Great trip though...

    New Garmin Oregon 700 series

    Yes, I really want to want this, but there just isn't anything compelling. I've also been a huge Garmin follower, particularly for their running wrist devices. We've talked about my current solution before, and I've just recently upgraded it. Before, I had an iphone 4 in a waterproof battery...

    Personal Location Beacons (PLB) or Satellite Messengers

    Given your username, I was wondering if you might chime in here :) I'm a newbie to the ADK's but my friend who I'm going with is a veteran and gave me a few options: Wright Algonquin Iroqois, Colden, Marcy Haystack, Gothics Armstrong, Cascade Porter, Dix, Whiteface. Any thoughts on any of...

    Personal Location Beacons (PLB) or Satellite Messengers

    Anyone have any experience with PLBs or Satellite Messengers which allow you to call for help in an emergency? I'm going on a multi day backpacking trip this summer in the Adirondacks and was thinking of picking one up. Given how often I'm out in the pines out of cell range alone, I was...

    Pickering's Morning Glory 2016

    Here are a couple I got. When I first got there, they were also closed, but I wasted some time and came back and they were open.

    Will do Guy, and vice versa if you are heading out there.

    North of Lower Forge

    Then I headed up to the location that Don Catts has previously identifed as the Lower Forge hunting club: Nothing there remaining however, I did just find a new lunch spot for kayaking on the Batsto. :-) I noted this square on the township border. I wasn't sure if that meant if there was...

    North of Lower Forge

    After the thread on Mannis Duck Pond, I remembered I wanted to hike the area north of Lower Forge, specifically, this little dog leg off of the main trail: The trail was nearly completely reclaimed in places, but fairly open in others. Sometimes it was hard to even find: I came across...

    Mannis Duck Pond

    I think you are talking about this area? This is Mannis duck pond road in 2014, in November. You can't see the leaves on the bushes, obviously, but you could still see the char at the bottom of the trees at that time.

    Mannis Duck Pond

    And don't forget they would have had to redirect the water flow to keep the forms dry until the concrete set. That is some deep woods piney engineering!

    Mannis Duck Pond

    I've always been interested in Mannis Duck pond. I even made a very similar observation about the challenges of building that dam. https://forums.njpinebarrens.com/threads/where-is-this.9838/page-43 Great Jon/John's think alike, I guess. :-) Don Catts added some really interesting info...

    Penn Branch Mountain Bike Trail

    I might be doing this this weekend. I've been wanting to do this trail for a while. I hiked part of it last summer but have been wanting to bike it.

    Paradise Lake/Camp Jam

    Thanks for the info, all. Sounds like I'm in for quite a challenge. I'll save this one for when I'm bored and need something challenging to do. :-)

    Paradise Lake/Camp Jam

    I was looking to do some paddling on the Nescochague at some point this summer. Does anyone know if you will get any problems if you put in at the dam? In my book Paddling the Jersey Pine Barrens, it recommends asking permission, but that was written when the camp was in operation. I haven't...
