GEHR trip Haha, some funny responses. Friends held up well, they're big kayak fans and had a great time. If anything, I think they fared better than I did. As for finding anything, nothing really out of the ordinary. There was a flipped over canoe about a mile down the river, but it looked like...

Calico Awesome looking trip Mark. That really looks like a less-traveled area of the pines. Nice job.

The trip. Well, two friends and myself set off at about 10:30 on Sunday to greet what would become one heck of an adventure. It was a very wild journey but as peaceful as ever. The hot weather made things a little rough, but the water was still cold, so a swim every now and then was quite...

Thanks for the read. That story was pretty informative and was really detailed. Really gives a good idea of what I'm up against. I've been warning my friends about how hard this could end up being, but so far, all is a go. I checked the river out at most of the bridges we'll cross today, and...

Muddin Do you have the date yet for this event? Not that I'm entering, but this sounds awesome to watch.

GEHR Kayak Thanks for the replies everyone, although I figured not that many have done it. I checked it out with satellite photos, and on an atlas & gazetteer, and it looks like it's gonna be rough. But with the rain we had, at least the water will be high in most spots. I'm going to bring a...

I know there are a lot of yakers here so I figured someone has done this already. A group of friends and myself are going to be kayaking the GEHR from Sicklerville to Penny Pot on the beautiful Sunday were supposed to have this weekend. Has anyone ever gone this route before? I've never heard...

lenses I shoot a Nikon D50, but I went with a Sigma 18-125mm 1:3.5-5.6. It's not a fast lens, but it works pretty good for the type of photography I do. I did want something for the macro shots though, and I just used the 28-80mm lens that came with the camera and got a set of Macro filters. I...

Enduros I've never been in any of the Pine Barren runs, although I do own an enduro. I myself am not that into it because it seems a little to chaotic for me, but everyone I've ever met riding in the pines has been nice and social. It's true it does only take a few to ruin it for the rest, but...

Crazy Yeah, I've read the rules on the back of my camping permits before and some are pretty crazy. I'm not really too happy about the one about not having a dog in a campsite. I usually camp pretty far from anything anyway though and that seems to help. If I was a ranger, I doubt I would roll...

trip Grendel, that looked like quite a trip, having run into the surprise snow. It didn't really accumulate too much where I live, but it looks like there's quite a bit on the leaves there. Nice camp with just the tarp. Tents weigh too much for backpacking and the really light ones are either...

Atsion Get a NJ Atlas. It's not hard to find anything in NJ with that.

tavern Near the forks? Kevin

Trestles Glad to see things are back together. As far as the plankage use, I figured it was for the horses. Enduro's can get over the bridge with the planks, but without help over the tracks, it's a real pain in the ass. I have a very heavy bike, so it didn't really work to well for me, but I...

trestle I'd say throw some square drive screws in the planks with some wire hidden underneath. Can't just pull the planks up then, and if someone tries to cut the boards, they'll wreck the teeth of they're saw in the process. Glad to hear the trestle's lumber pirate is getting taken care of...

Poo Haha. It is a nice photo. And with Mike Rowe, they could get him to help clean up all the deer carcasses on every dirt road in the pines.

slip and fall Wow. That's really got to be pretty scary. Not to mention if he knocked himself out. And if you're below the level of the high tide, who know's what could happen. Those holes suck and I guess it will take a couple of falls before they're either fenced off, or filled in with...

fires Gipsie, I know what you're talking about. I went through the area south of Hampton Furnace and everything was still smoking pretty good at around 12:00 pm. It looked like they burned it on Saturday and the rain we had on Sunday was slowly putting the smoking parts out. I really expected...

Stuck Yes, but it happens to the best of us and you just have to be ready for it if you dive in. Although that hummer guy was a jackass. I was walking on the beach in AC on my break one day and helped out this young kid who got stuck (only 2wd) under the Central Pier and was going to try to...

Trees Whippoorbill, looks like you guys had a good time. I was just out there the Sunday before the big snowstorm we had. Me and 3 friends walked the perimeter of the quarry closest to the RR tracks and checked out the swamps in between. It's a neat area and there are some big trees in there. I...
