    4 Rattlesnakes Along a Road

    I do agree that getting chiggers is more likely down here then in the barrens.here they are everywhere but i have gotten them in the barrens every bit as viciously as down here.I can laugh at shoobies freaking out over skeeters and gnats.I hate deerflies and greenheads but can also ignore them...

    Kayaking Lake Oswego

    Trail to river This is close to where the river forks as shown on satellite photos. The current was really humming!!! I went upstream and took the left fork (I think - Papoose Branch?) for about an hour until I came to a tree over the river. I might have been able to get under it if the water...

    West Branch of the Wading River

    can you post the link to that?Hey Ed how was that trip?I didn't know it had been done.was it a bear or easy sailing?I've approached parts of the stream but never jumped in and floated it so have no idea how boatable most of it is though the sections I've seen are typical wading,beautiful! Al

    West Branch of the Wading River

    I had recently thought of trying this very same section you speak of.As far as i know it has never been done and from birds eyeing it you can see some obvious bad patches but there are obvious open stretches.I think I'd try to catch the water up a little more then it is before trying it and...

    Corn snake

    German, As with snakes they change the latin names so often it is impossible to keep up with them.I was just surfing a snake discovered in China in 1989 that I think has to be the most beautiful snake I've ever seen.It's species name is mangshanensis but it has already been thru three genus...

    Corn snake

    down my way it is common to find black rats with red in them.Iwonder if perhaps they don't recognize the same species lines we impose upon them sometimes.

    4 Rattlesnakes Along a Road

    I agree Guy.Chiggers are more annoying.they don't carry diseases but once you get them on you they are almost impossible to get rid of in time.If your thorough you can get ticks off as you get them but chiggers will go through your socks and make mush out of your ankles in minutes.I hates...

    4 Rattlesnakes Along a Road

    I had a hard drive crash and been down over a week. The reason i thought they were mating is because they were laying side by side,the two on the left were and from having seen snakes mate before after the initial spiral around each other they usually wind up lying side by side while mating...

    Thompson's Beach Camping?

    I've swam through mud like that in the past.You could see he had the idea after he hooked up and rolled over on his stomach.You have to lay down flat and spread your weight out and then dig your elbows in to pull with and shimmy your hips and knees back and forth for momentum.It's kinda like...
