Looks like neatly executed sabotage, probably done with a cordless circular saw. Someone either doesn't like motorcycles or they are just thoughtless vandals looking to get someboby killed. Or how about this: The gap could be intentional and the builder keeps the missing panel in the woods...

A 1976 Dodge is the best guess so far for me. http://www.tntclassiccars.com/100_0244.jpg I looked at Google and Yahoo images from 85 and back to 70. The grille on the truck that we found was heavy painted steel and was serving as a structural component in the front end. I couldn't find...

Freshwater Forum-Batsto NJ Fish and Wildlife will host a freshwater fishing forum at Batsto Village on 2-28-09. Here is the info: http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/news/2009/fshforumsouth09.htm Enjoy.

George, I only doubt the oil dispenser idea because the inside was spotless. I would think there would be a residue or at least staining if it was used for oil. We did not bring it back with us because we just got started on the hike and we had a few miles to go. The lack of a pressure tight...

The top had a barbed fitting for accepting 1/4" dia hose and the 1" dia fitting extending into the tank, could have held a pump. The barbed fitting tee'd into the 1" dia tubing extending from the top. The tank door was not sealable and would nopt have been air or water tight. I think the...

That's great stuff Jeff. I have to get a camera this year. My trapping bait station consisted of deer parts, goose carcasses and fish. It has been visited only by a skunk and some vultures, based on a review of the tracks in the snow. I can't believe the vultures found it because I...

That's the lake. My wife enjoyed it very much. She did remark though, that for the middle of nowhere, there was a lot of vehicle traffic on the primary roads. I guess the nice weather and cabin fever brought a lot of people out. The hike to the Papoose was well off the beaten path and very...

I made it out to the plains again today with my wife and the doggy. Bob and Guy really piqued my interest in the area in the brief outing yesterday. It was a cloudless, cobalt sky day. The first stop was a lake that looks like it belongs in Maine. Just right of center is pine woods and...

A very rewarding day in the woods gentlemen. I have done no exploring in the plains over the years and I got a great look at them yesterday. Rugged and wild says it all. As a bonus, Bob gave me an insider look at the Whiting area along the Chamberlain. This is another area I have never visited...

Yes, Peter Pan's lesser known brother was Sander Pan. Disney only needed one fairy, so Sander went into the brick business. You have found a remnant one of his products. :)

Nice report Jeff. That certainly is a beautiful section of woods. Thanks to Bob's Scouting the Skit, a lot of us got an up close and personal look at both the Skit and the Roberts. You need your son to start keeping you company on those solo outings. We may need also him as a designated...

The original was taken at 5 MP. It was in the winter of '05. The version in my gallery is 600 x 449 and 645 x 483 if you click on it a second time. Unfortunately, this photo was lost from my hard drive along with a lot of others in a computer crash a few years ago. One of my sons...

A Sam Adams of one flavor or the other.

Thanks Bob. I sometimes wish I was able to raise my family in the days when that truck was going to work everyday. Simpler times my friend. Scott

It's hard to say Jim. Even Quaker Bridge Road was challenging last weekend because of the frozen/refrozen holes. With the extended cold we have had for the last few days, you should be able to stay on top of the ice. Breaking through is not fun and can result in a good stuck if you can't get...

Great report Jim and that's a beautiful new companion you have there! The more time you spend with her off-lead the better she will become at staying close and returning to you when you call. They like to test their bravery at this age and my dog is starting to run ahead a hundred or so yards...

Looks like a dose of Dr. Scott's homemade potion is in order! Of course, that may just lead to more bruises. Don't ask me how I know. :)

Well I am might as well continue the hi-jack. NJ Fish and Wildlife has the most unbelievable rules for legal weapons for groundhog that you could ever imagine. You can hunt with any centerfire caliber under .25 with ANY weight bullet. Hollow points, soft tip and expanding bullets are all...

Sage advice George and well spoken.

Al, I like the spring snare story! I have quite a few cats hangin' around here that could use a lesson or two. The snares are not set to grab a foot, they are designed to restrain by the neck or body after an animal passes through. What you came across is a coyote snare. As you said, "head...
