    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    I was in retirement when I started roaming the Pines back in 2008; only during the weekdays at least once a week between 9AM and 3PM. Even up today, I never saw an illegal off-road vehicle of any kind, except once when I stayed until 4PM. (The fishing was good at day in an old cranberry bog.)...

    Mystery Mounds

    . Bob, your getting too geologicalific for me. But, I did find this. 'The origin of the mounds in all cases appears to be erosional and/or depositional. Those on level terrain are formed simply by deposition of “A” soil horizon material in clumps of bushes which, under desert conditions, grow...

    Where is this?

    Slight change to its location. The speedway was in the southeast corner what is now the Manahawkin Commons, near the Walmart. The locals called it the Manahawkin Speedway. It was a 1/2 mile dirt oval built in a gravel pit. It opened on 4/23/1950, but closed shortly in 1951.

    Five Points Hunting & Fishing Club

    My take; the hunting club may have been on Oniontown Rd in Medford, just off of Tuckerton Rd up from the intersection with Stokes. At one time, a fifth road came into that intersection (Indian Mills Rd), but was cut off short and curved to the left onto Stokes, just south of the intesection.

    Pinelands Fishing sites recommendations.

    I fish various spots in the Pines. The only fish to be caught is the pickerel. There are other lakes to try, but I fish only old cranberry bogs. To get to those spots you have to be a little adventurous. It's tough fishing those and the window of time is short because it gets choked with weeds...

    Where is this?

    Guy; Yes, that's close enough. At least that was a guess. It's along the left side of Route 72 going about .5 miles from Bulter Place heading back toward 4-Mile Circle. On the right side about .7 miles after Cedar Ave.

    Much More Mushrooms

    Back in 2018, I generated a post on mushrooms. Those were comfined to a one day trip along Bispham Mill Creek. The ones below I found while exploring the Pines over the years. Are mushrooms a plant? https://asm.org/Articles/2021/January/Three-Reasons-Fungi-Are-Not-Plants...

    Oil Sheen or Iron Bacteria

    Bog bacteria is a autotrophic bacteria living in a zone where ground water, de-oxygented by microrganisms feeding on organic-rich swamp beneath, meets the air. The video at the of the Post can explain things. All the photos below were taken at one of the bog iron sites that I had visted over...
