    North, South or Central?

    North, South or Central?

    Perhaps in north Jersey they say "youse" and Central they say "You'uns" and down here they say "Y'all"????

    Prescribed burns

    I"m all for allowing nature to take it's course.Still can't figure out how we save the forest from the beetles by mowing it to the ground????

    Job's Old Swamp, A PBX Hike

    Your right,just looks like less pine to the north,doesn't necessarily mean less briar unless it means there are no pine because it's wetter.I will gravitate toward areas that look wet/black because I know briar doesn't like to be flooded.I see no black areas where you hit the wall so yes it may...

    Lebanon State Forest Project

    I think I figgered it out.The Black x's especially the ones with BM next to them have monuments but the little brown x's are topographical features that are obvious and need no marks such as hilltops and hence are unmarked.I think what they don't realize that hilltops in south jersey are not...

    the x 65 in this pic is what I"m wanting to know if these are monumented.The legends I"m finding online are unclear since their all black x's on the legends and these are brown and size is hard to gage.

    Lebanon State Forest Project

    Guy I know that the symbols on a topo map with a square with a dot in the center or a triangle with a dot in the center means a monument has been put there.Now with the info you gave me I see that anyplace on the topo that has an X and BM next to it for benchmark also has a monument there or did...

    Man yours really are in the woods! Almost all of mine are roadside.I"m out of commission right now anyway.Momma broke my GOS,knocked it off the counter and now I have to wait for it to come back from the shop.Still on warranty and had the service repair contract or else it would have been 80 bucks.

    Parker Preserve Trail Out

    There should have been a notice on the map board at the parking area.True I didn't pay much mind to the map board on the way out because I knew the area but I checked it on the way out and there was nothing there.There should have been signs at the fork in the trail as apparently there was...

    Parker Preserve Trail Out

    Someone was out there driving around while we were there.They came up behind us in a white minivan as we approached the wash out.I think they heard we raising hell as they drove up behind me.They turned around very quickly and took off as we turned around before I could catch them and ask them...

    Parker Preserve Trail Out

    I have no clue but the Hurricane was what? two,three years ago? That is not only enough time to fix the road or bridge it but barring prohibitive costs it costs nothing to put a letter inside the map board explaining that the trail is closed due to a deep water river crossing. I am an...
