    A day I do not look forward too

    Yea. I heard there was a lot. I was asked today by someone who lives out there why so many were needed for such a small fire. I reminded him all fires start out small and there are no hydrants out there so they need to bring their own water;)

    A day I do not look forward too

    When I lived in my townhouse they seemed to bus them in. We would have to just sit on the front porch and has out candy as the line formed. Now we just get a few local kids which are mostly friends of my kids.

    The REAL Hen of The Woods

    I recently met someone from Illinois who is a mushroom hunter. I've alway heard about chicken and gen if the woods. I never realized they were two different types until he showed me the difference. I sent him some pictures and he identified them for me. Though I still wouldn't attempt to eat them.

    Food for thought--the can sandwich

    I'd try it. It looks like a good thing to keep in your bag as an emergency. Something that will satisfy hunger but doesn't need to stay cold or will get crushed in the bottom of your bag. Fighting forest fires out west I always kept a MRE in the bottom of my day pack. I was thankful to have it...

    Pinelands Adventures offering canoe hunting

    It was posted last week. Yesterday it made it to social media. After it being a hot topic for a day it was deleted from Craig's list. Logistically it would have never worked.

    Alleged vandals arrested at N.J. landmark closed due to vandalism

    I alway thought that $200 was a very low estimate to close off the tower. Kind of like when I buy something without my wife's permission it leaves less explaining when it was cheap;)

    Alleged vandals arrested at N.J. landmark closed due to vandalism

    They must have done a lot more damage then the fence. According to this article it cost $200 to install the whole thing and they did over $1000 in damages. http://pinebarrenstribune.com/dep-officials-restrict-public-access-to-famed-apple-pie-hill-fire-tower-p293-165.htm

    If the DEP wanted that information all they would have do is tell the FFS to gather up the info for them. The FFS works under the DEP.

    Spotlight Article on Off-Roading

    Thats the big question. Are the number of violations up because of increased activity or the result of increased patrols? Either way this study is the baseline for future decisions. As thorough as it is, the study by itself can't prove when these problem areas started. Some are likely 20 years...

    It It looks very thorough and there is a lot of good info there. It's a good base line for future studies to see what is working and what is not.
