    Fire in Waterford

    I believe it’s in the small patch of woods between the powerlines and Tremont. My son is there now doing structure protection/ember patrol. Should wind uo around 50 acres if it stays in those boundaries.

    Friendship Bogs

    I’ve seen that type of ice several times before. One time on the banks of the Mullica we were walking close to the waters edge on what looked like sand. Only to find out it was ice that had lifted the sand. It was crushed under our weight and we would drop 4-5 inches in spots. Thanks, I’ve...

    Friendship Bogs

    Two weeks ago I damn near rattled out all my fillings I imagine Caranza is worse now. We wound up turning around before we got to friendship.

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    Yes, the main channel is still flowing. The water level at the plastic bridge was surprisingly higher then I thought it would be. I suspect there might be some beaver activity causing that. Upstream from the campground there was good flow but I did see some small shrubs that were chewed down by...

    We were briefly out a bit today. Goshen Pond doesn’t look much like a pond.

    Berlin Peak

    Did the recent fire have you looking there? You could see the Philly skyline from there years ago.

    Visiting the Monster

    In 1999, I believe, we had a very dry summer and that whole area burnt in the Rockwood Road Fire. It burnt very hot and fast. Rockwood road was completely dry that year as well.

    Visiting the Monster

    Well, now I know where the kids and I are going to visit this weekend. We explored further down Rockwood road a couple weeks ago. We went right on by and explored further down Rockwood road. I don’t even think of going there then. Thanks for the idea.

    Batsto Country Living Fair

    Yes, we were there around noon. They ran two passes and saved the one piece of white cedar that resulted. I was watching from the exact vantage point that you took that picture from. In your pic you can see all new wood that they replaced to be able to open that door.

    Batsto Country Living Fair

    The sawmill cut its first board in years. They spent weeks getting it ready for Sunday. They even made a new babbitt bearing.

    Deep Run Yet Again!

    It was great to see you guys out there. We made a brief stop at Hampton. The water is so low the wood remains under the bridge are now exposed. We were running short on time so we didn’t stick around but plan to go back and explore a little more. This is looking straight down from the bridge.

    There was a small fire in town on 4th street. She could have smelled that one.

    Increased risk of fire spread today

    I believe that one was contained, but it’s in the same direction. Could be the same one.

    Increased risk of fire spread today

    Update: After picking up my son we decided to investigate. There’s clearly 2 separate fires. One looks like it’s towards Friendship and another much further away possibly Fort Dix area.
