That name 'egg harbor road' is intriguing. Must have been a major road in the early 19th century and earlier. Maybe went through Halfway, Cedar Bridge, and Cedar Grove and then on to Tuckerton area.

Same as here, right?

Okay, got it, thanks. I'll have to think about that. I lived in Presidential Lakes (upper mill) in the 1970's, but I never went by road names.

This sheep-laurel was about 5 foot tall. Unusual.

Colors and forms.

Ron and I got into a nice seep where there were quite a few rare plants. It was dangerous though, the sphagnum mats were treacherous. Very deep.

I did that about 8 years ago. The photos are on here somewhere. I wrapped my hat with a blue exercise band and put tanglefoot on it. Worked.

Where did you get the map? Is the map North-up? That can be very confusing (unless you are Boyd).

A few years ago I entered Mink Path from North Maple Ave. There was a house at the end before it turned to a trail. I went to the powerlines and did some botanizing to the NE, then I did the SE section....and my phone rang. It was the guy from the house, he asked me to get off that section as...

Guy, won't be for awhile because I want to start at the source, and take my time. Will be several trips. But yes, I'll ring you up when I'm heading south of 679.

Ron and I went to Buck Run area to gawk at plants, so I went to the way point "first try out". Yes, we could have done it. Deeper but very narrow in places.

Remember, that could be a skeeter breeding pond.

Yes! Jeff, how far did you go, can you tell me? I'm thinking of surveying most of it, but the fresh water part.

I heard that, but I didn't see a permit.

And ("and" he says), I found an odd additional plant. At first I thought it may be fireweed, but no. I think it may be pokeweed. Eh?

Oddly, in the middle of this Branch, after the fire this Princess Tree started growing (2 of them). Maybe hitchiked in on someone's vehicle.

Now this is strange. This morning, I could see the sand above the water from route 539, so I knew things were well-drained. I go back there, and not only is the beaver deceiver removed, but the water level is perfect. Did the beaver get trapped out?

Water flow was good. Here the stream goes under 3 cedars and keeps on going.

New mountain laurel rising from the ashes.
