    The pines are hot as heck in the summer but still great hiking if you take precautions.Plenty of water or gatorade and find some shade and rest if your overheating,move slow and try not to stay in open sandy areas too long.Bushwacking is out of the question unless your swamping near a nice...

    Live Hawk Cam

    No idea but wouldn't a poacher notice the camera?Or do you think you can place if far enough away and camo it that it wouldn't be noticed? I often find deer stands but noticing the cameras at chest level before I see the stands.Putting cameras up in trees would probably result in less game...

    Actually Lebanon forest has a large oak area in it's western reaches around the northern end of the Batona trail around Ong's Hat.It's a nice area and would be shaded in summer. Boyd as someone who lives down here and lived in Belleplain for three years you must have lucked out that day.The...

    Attention NJ Forest Fire Service

    Everyone in the pines should have to reconstruct their houses underground with at least two feet of dirt on top and ventilation systems installed.These houses would be very easy to heat and cool and would be fireproof with proper ventilation systems they would be safe in a wildfire.Of course...

    Didn't know you were a surveyor! If I'd of had more sense when younger I'd of got into surveying.I wanted to be a naturalist or wildlife biologist but with my YEC leanings I'm sure that would not have worked out well and a surveyors job would have kept me in the woods.I'll take a hundred ticks...
