The state now gates Bennets Mill road which of course pisses me off but yes I know the northern road too that headed to Doughty's Tavern. The bridge though in ruins still spans the creek but is uncrossable by vehicle. I don't know what mound you speak of Gabe.Was it on the west or east side of...

that phot of the maurice river upland they claim has been reclaimed in the intro chapter is buckshutem road about 2 miles from my house.That is not nor has ever been marshland if they are speaking of the fields next to the road.That sits about ten feet above high tide level.Perhpas they are...

Sure one could travel the length of the barrens unobserved but a tribe living there indefinitely won't happen and as far as passing through Jersey is a peninsulas and almost an island with the central jersey sprawl,were not a place to just pass through unless your a bird or a very good swimmer...

was he anywhere near Tom Borwns survival school?They do crap like that to scare folks for kicks.

except for this week,yes I think i could.during six day hunting season i doubt it unless I holed up in a nasty swamp till it was over.Even during regular hunting season I'd risk being spotted by bow hunters.Anytime someone is sitting still to ambush prey they have the advantage over someone...

Yes Banjo,it is impossible for us to visualize more dimensions then were exposed to. I get incredulous looks when I mention more dimensions then our own but physicists today claim they have proven it mathematically,the problem is my math doesn't extend beyond the most basic algebra. I do wish i...

The barrens has no pine nut.I think your referring to the nut on ponderosa pine,quite nutritous and easy to gather as you say.here all we have are pitch pine cones and seeds.To get the seeds out you have to roast the cones or else have teeth like a red squirrel.They are edible but so small and...

I can picture a scene in a tavern deep in the pines at a late hour a group of men sitting in the glow of a fireplace on a December night two hundred years ago. A man is relating to the others of how his grandfather was in the very same tavern when Joe Mulliner came in with a few of his men and...

i think the only place they eat people is in southern california anyway :-)

there is a strong seep spring in that tall patch of pines above the pond.I could not pinpoint the exact spot of emergence but within 50 ft it went from nothing to a good flow the last time i looked.This probably changes with water table fluctuations I imagine.I have noticed at times the stream...

Thanks Tom,will do. I like that avatar!...thought I was looking at Dragoncoj there for a minute

I have seen a cougar and their not supposed to...

i spooked a grouse today.maybe their coming back?!

There are rocks in the barrens Chris,These damn beasts are throwing property stones! Thats why half of them are missing! Sasquatch did it! Watch out you big ape,I've got your number and a fist sized chunk of precambrian (flood) granite form lake superior and a good right arm.

There for a minute I thought Guy was jumping into the Sasquatch discussion,I was astounded :-) Then I realized he had a map for us:-) ! much more in character! Great map! By the way I was under the assumption that the bombing range road is what backed that pond up and that is was a manmade...

I hear the biggest pine in the state resides just north of route 72 just east of manahawkin.never been to it.I know some really big pines down here.I seen a tree list of the states biggest trees years ago.My buddys dad had it.would like to know where to get one of those now. Nice woods,nice...

I'd say dog also.looks like claw marks to me and I don't think a cat would dig in that deep .A track pattern would be helpful or a closer picture too.did it register when it walked? It looks as if it was making a left turn by the dirt thrown out of the track to the right.without a pattern or...
