JD, yes, the Nature Conservancy did donate to the county, but not sure if it was all of it. I can't say they didn't at least make a sight line, but back in those days I was all over those woods. I may have missed them though if very narrow...
Okay, so obviously the bonfire was not in that pit, right? Weird that the NJ tax map shows different locations for that border. I can't see the state making such a blatant charge, that it was on private property, unless it really was.
I listened to it. The guest says he has evidence of mass burning of human remains in Wuhan China, and he ties it to that biological lab somehow. He says the release of the virus was purposeful (then he says just "maybe" later). He goes on to say they were burning evidence, and the host says yes...
A note from Governor Murphy Al:
If you think this is “just the flu” – you are 100% wrong.
In just six weeks, we’ve lost 4,070 New Jerseyans to #COVID19. That’s more than CDC statistics show we’ve lost over the past three entire flu seasons COMBINED.
COVID-19 is more virulent than the flu. One...
By the way, they have all the names of the accused.

I know I'm gonna hear from Sammy on this, but the articles say the fire burned for a month. I find that difficult to believe. I don't think you should include smoldering stumps.
JD, I posted this link of our trip report last night. Open up and look at it. We were right near there, and yes, we knew our elevation was steep. Did you look at the video? We were just going up from the western branch at that point. See thumbnail...
Al, that NJ.com one is dated 15 March. I could not find my friends wife in there from Burlington County, and happened to look at the date at the top. Do you have a later one?
I always knew where it was. The gravel pit is often cited because it's the main representation of the area. I had a PBX exploration that would go to the actual point on the topo, but knowing how hard it is to beat through the pygmy pines in that area, I decided to not do it. All the guys would...
I don't have an opinion regarding inflating the numbers. Never even crossed my mind that anybody would inflate numbers. I use the media because it's handy if I'm flipping between channels.
Data as of April 16, 7:00 p.m. EDT.
This chart will update twice daily, once before noon Eastern and again between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. with the final numbers for the day.

They also count US territories and in...
I have a slip of paper wherein I'd write the tally of cases and deaths day by day.
On March 17, we had 6,000 cases, and 109 deaths. Today, just one month later, we have 665,000 cases and 34,000 deaths.
When we did that Papoose Branch explore, we came very close to it, and walked right by it.

Guy, I never saw this video. I don't know why. Either that, or I'm too old to remember it. But I remember us doing...
