Hey GermanG, No problem! Like I said in the other post, I really appreciate you taking the time to post that advisory. We had a great time, although, for some reason, I thought that they were burning a relatively small area. Imagine our surprise when we started hiking and we saw such a large...

Thanks Gibby! I checked on the link for Wells Mills park but never went to the OC parks general site. That'll learn me! Thank you again!

Hey Dogg, Gibby and 46er, thank you for your responses! Is there any reason to believe that the park will be closed again tomorrow for burning, or should I consider us safe to make the trip to Wells Mills? Thank you again!

Hi Folks, My wife has never hiked in the pine barrens before, and I am really excited to get her there. We were going to do the 8 mile loop in Wells Mills on Saturday 3/10, but I learned on here that there was a prescribed burn (thanks to GermanG our weekend was not a complete disaster!) I...

Good pictures! What kind of snake? Also, is that a maple tree?

Thank you, by the way, for posting this!

Thanks guys!

I called on Thursday 3/8 at about 3:30 pm and they said that there were no advisories for this weekend. What the hell?!

Good luck to your daughter and family!!

Glad to find this thread, I was going to make a thread regarding tick repellant. Do people find that they pick them up when walking trails and not bushwacking (being careful to avoid brushing up against overgrowth)? We're planning on going to Wells Mills this weekend and Brendan Byrne in...

"Park officials say the snowboarders weren't hurt but didn't have winter backcountry experience. They say the men also didn't have food, water, lights or appropriate avalanche gear." Bet'cha that was a frightening couple of hours...

Milkweed bug?

Howdy folks, My wife and I briefly visited Wells Mills Park yesterday and noticed a board at the trailhead that advertised the Forked River Mountain Preserve. I did some googling and checked this site and noticed a thread or two saying that the Forked River Mountain area was privately owned...

Sorry to hear that you two have pneumonia. My son (1 year old) now has pneumonia for the second time this winter (second time in one month, actually). Lots of stuff going around in these mild temps. I'd be really happy to see a hard, several-week cold blast before spring.

Awesome photo!

Hi 46'er, I suppose my initial reaction was to imagine larger crowds and the inevitable litter, doggie droppings, etc that can come with it. That and the fact that I love the isolation when out in the parks. I have to agree with you though, that if the parks were forced to close, it would be...

How depressing.

I sent in my registration form on Friday. Looking forward to going!

I look foward to finding them and taking some pictures!

Manumuskin, I now realize that I neglected to say thank you for the GPX and the panoramic shots. Thank you! Those panos are very cool.
