From what I've seen, seems like you just plant a pole, and hey, you're fishing.

You could use some tough leather gloves or something when walking through thick brush. The briars will really cut you up good.

https://www.nj.com/news/2023/01/mystery-shaking-rumbling-felt-along-jersey-shore-again-no-earthquakes-reported.html Did you hear/feel it? There were a couple of deep booms a few seconds apart here around 11AM yesterday. It shook the house a little bit. This is pretty far inland.

Weirdly, it's Mississippi-shaped. And the capital of Mississippi is...Jackson. Odd coincidence.

Here.

Breathtaking.

That's just the path that the little green men took after emerging from their craft ;)

Looking at some great past threads on geology on here, but a lot of old images are missing. It'd be great if Spung-Man weighed in on this one. I've seen ironstone/sandstone plenty of times but the silvery gray color is unusual.

So what's your impression of what this was? Indeed part of a very old bog? The channels are interesting.

The first image in this thread reminded me how awesome Bird's Eye View (45 degree oblique low-altitude aerial photography) was in Live/Bing Maps, more than a decade ago. It looks like the feature is still in the product, but the coverage has been dramatically reduced. Is there anywhere in or...

Wondering about these as well, a little bit to the east.

Maybe they floated the lumber down the creek and built it onsite? You're right though, it's really remote for seemingly no reason.

Here, on the Sleeper.

I've just realized that the article I linked is the second in a series. The first one is also available from the Library of Congress and is even better from a historical perspective. The article describes a clubhouse used as a hunting retreat by sportsmen from Philadelphia, on the east side of...

Far too "sphincter tightening" for my vehicle, to borrow your expression, and my adventures are generally limited to the weekend, but interested to see what you find.

An update! I recently reached out to the Maurice River Township Heritage Society regarding the history of Fries Mill. Specifically, I was wondering if they might have copies of the maps used to create that information sign. While they did not have those, I received a very friendly response and...

Can we see the full comments as well please?

Here are those maps from the sign, perspective-corrected and in much higher resolution, in case anyone is interested in them.
