Was the pun intended? A long dead thread???

I thought about it too.No time then and none now.When i have the time I won't have the money and I"ll be too old anyway,matter of fact i already am.

And I have the nerve to complain about my ass aches?

The big cedar on Nixon branch is slightly over 11 ft breast height.I guess it has never been reported

A writer of Historical fiction that I really did like and have read all his books was terry Johnston who wrote the Titus bass series and was doing a series on the western Indian battles when He died half way through it.Also Donald Clayton Porter wrote an awesome White Indian series that I read...

Yes Guy.First time I was ever pick pocketed by a bush. I"m surprised i walked that far without noticing it but the tree was in sight so I didn't need it at that point.When i left the tree I"d of noticed it being gone for sure.Normally it's around my neck but I shoved it in my pocket and had the...

Never read Him but had a friend who raved about Him:-)

PS Jim Wright wrote this? I"m descended from a Jim Wright! But He was from Goochland County Va back around 1800

They started the hacking project when I was about 22 in 86? Unless they we're doing it awhile before I discovered them out to the Point.I walked up behind a young guy probably younger then I was who lived in a trailer hauled out there during the summer.He was behind a spotting scope spying on...

This was taken last winter a day after I discovered these two trees.I took Whipoorbill out to see the trees and he filmed it live on periscope.he just realized his phone saved the video and he sent it to me on facebook. The biggest (second) tree has a Bald Eagle nest in it.The longest occupied...

That is new jersey sandstone,possibly impregnated with Iron Ore which in that case would make it Limonite.

I was up it maybe ten years ago.Don't remember the road being that bad.I do remember feeling guilty when I got to the top and looked down and seen a steady stream of hikers inching their way to the top.Now I"m over 50 so no need to feel guilty anymore.Every one of em looked under 30

I have a friend from the Poconos area who met me back around 98.He was a Tom brown student like I was and he found me on this forum and PM"ed me.He wanted to learn the barrens since that was Toms stomping grounds and the setting of his books so I met him up by Hedger House and we frequented the...

Need to start carrying a military entrenching tool with you Guy.They only weigh a couple pounds and will save your fingers:-)

Climbed up Whiteface once.That elevator was the toughest one I"ve ever ridden!

I see they have been doing some blazing in Belleplain since I lived over there.I"ve walked all those trails before they were trails,most of the are old sand roads shown on the topos.That is some seriously chiggered country.The Mountain Bike trail has NO for hiking.Are they seriously telling us...

Actually the Fisher quite surprised me.I was in Cook Forest State Park and had no idea Fisher ranged that far south.I always thought of them as a far north critter.I saw it while driving down a road about 50 ft off the road,woods very open.I got out and followed it about 100 yards before it...

Weasels look like an animated piece of rope moving sort of like a live slinky.A Mink is basically a larger weasel.I saw a Fisher in Pa once.A weasel on steroids.

A mink is one critter I have never seen in the wild.I"ve only seen weasels twice.I would imagine an animal with dark brown fur would look black if wet.I know my hair being dark brown looks black when wet at least till is started getting these mysterious white hairs popping up all through it.I...

Only thing that scares me in the woods at night is a stick in the eye.I usually wear glasses at night because of that.Besides after close inspection the mirror I may well be the scariest thing that raoms the barrens at night. Maybe thats why the yotes leave me alone.By the way heard a bunch of...
