well then my whining has been stifled.I''m willing to give up a fe basically dead end roads in places that need monster trucks to go anyway and places that are more hip wader friendly then friendly to things with axles I just didn't want to see one of my through routes shut down.Honestly i don't...

here are a few.skit branch upstream from hampton furnace road.skit branch anywhere between carranza road and the bridge above batona camp.tulpehocken swamp above hawkin bridge all the way to featherbed baranch.friendship bogs nearby.makepeace wma.various spungs and islands scattered up and down...

I lost this thread under the quarter mile stuff.This is good to know the axis shift should not loos the hundreds of stones in my massive stone file.Some of them to lose by a few feet is to lose them for good since their buried:-) Thanks Al Isaiah 24:20 *The earth shall reel to and fro like a...

I take it Mines spung road can be driven?The red line says yes but the yellow x may say no??? That road is my bone of contention. Al

Thats a good analogy Tom.These are our woods highways.I am not advocating be allowed to drive wherever we want,through swamps and meadows.maybe shut down a few dead end roads that go nowhere we should be in vehicles anyway but leave 206 alone so to speak.Whats next?Quaker bridge road?Tuckerton...

Thats what struck me as odd.I see them every year but I literally could not sit down on this small island I was on last week without crushing half a dozen of these mounds which i did.I thought they were ant mounds but I saw absolutely no ants on them.Bees did cross my mind but if I had really...

I think we're talking sense here:-) There is no need to block off long established through routes to keep people out of quarter mile.If the road doesn't lead you straight to quarter mile then leave it alone.I have driven sout to the tracks several times and like being able to go that far to get...

I advocate a "Drive Thru" not a "Dribe BY" but a drive thru.Taking a tip from Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience" here.Everyone on this site that agrees with either no closure or you've closed too much line up at Quaker Bridge or High Crossing and do a stinkin Drive Through.I'll lead. Al PS I'll...

I'm not very good with signs.Ask Whip

This is a reply somewhat to Devilstoy but with info pertinent to all. I have never actually been to quarter mile.I have been within a quarter mile of quarter mile (pun intended) but it's the truth.I have explored the large spung/ponds north of the tracks but never crossed the tracks since i...

I have a 50 mile woods route I occasionally drive,usually on full moon nights with my wife and sometimes Whip.Haven't done it in a couple years now.This route is primarily in Wharton and does not touch or cross any blacktop roads.It is semi circular and very winding and does not repeat itself.It...

I just fail to understand why their vehicles do not damage the land and the rest of ours do.Preserve it to me means keep out all vehicles.With the TNC I guess it isn't technically our land though we are allowed to use it since they get a tax break for allowing us to but with Wharton forest,that...

I have been reading articles claiming the lastest quake in Japan has shifted the earth on it's axis by as much as 16 ft.So does this affect my GPS accuracy?I still managed to hone in on a couple stones last week after the quake.I find it hard to believe that my machine put me right on top of...

you know the funny thing is.The people who are now controlling and patrolling this area will be free to drive wherever the hell they want to.I"ve seen the nature conservancy do this repeatedly.They buy land,seal off the road to everyone else and then proceed to use the same roads now gated to do...

I seen the same thing this past week myself with hills in the dozens in a very small space.I have seen these many times but not this many,I have a bug site where they answer questions.I will take this photo and send it in and see if i get an answer. Al

Seriously H. Sapiens lives from Tierra del Fuego to Greenland and from the Sahara to the frigid plateau of Tibet.Whatever the climate may throw at us we can deal with it,what scares me is our plain inability to deal with each other. Al

I well remember what was swarming on that sand visible behind the stone.I'm sure you remember me jumping straight up in the air and making a very feminine (Alfreda) like sound before I swiftly headed for less snady pastures. Al PS you can see on the front of the rock where the smaller piece...

at 40 ft above sea level giving the current rise rates I'll be maybe 500 years old when I end up with beachfront property,I'm not making any plans though.By then the glaciers may be on the advance again because we'll either be gone by then or all the fossil fuel will be used up.Ten to one we...

But I'm sure if i needed the history of any specific frog family in the barrens all I'd have to do is throw you the Anurans surname and it'd be a race to see if you or Paul come up with their historical background first:-) Al
