    DL&W Oxford and "Manunka Chunk" tunnels

The Van Nest wasn't as flooded when I went through it a couple of times, so it was much easier than now. Bring plenty of light if you do because you may miss some of the details inside. There are holes...

    Bombing Range Road?

    Apu, towards the end of the week and usually after nine in the morning. I had great luck catching the practice at Warren Grove several Friday mornings. Watch your head with the A10s, they fly below the trees at times.

    NJ Forest Fire Impacts 30 Acres

    Speaking of the massive burn along Carranza, that was a good hot burn that gutted the litter and lower canopy. It opened up the area dramatically.

    NJ Forest Fire Impacts 30 Acres

    The smoke from this fire blanketed Mercer county this morning and I actually saw it as far as Plainsboro. I couldn't believe it was Wharton. I thought it was a local brush fire.

    NJDEP Illegal Dumping Survey

    Speaking of illegal dumping, I called the DEP last weekend because of the four bagster dumpsters that were dropped beside Mt. Misery Road and all of the debris that is still alongside the water crossing. I can't believe they didn't get caught dumping bags filled with that much garbage there. It...
