I hope the plan includes that cedar growing back. Atlantic White Cedar wetlands are considered important ecosystems, as you already know. Their decline attracts a lot of study and attention. To me, it would be tragic to allow conversion into blueberry fields or cranberry bogs.

In like a Lion?

That's a good one Jon! :cool:

Wow, that is blurry in some areas. Must have been summer and sunny, I see a lot of flash back off sandy areas. Why is it that these aerials don't have a handy time and date somewhere easily accessible?

In my experience, the older roads are a vanishing breed. In my travels I see many, many roads that nature is taking over. Those packs of roving ATV's and monster trucks are, for the most part, sticking to the tried and true main roads (and adjacent ponds if they find 'em) instead of creating new...

Yes, the ones far upstream where we were. Not so much down by Webb's MIll Road. But the worst cedar devastation I have ever seen was when that fire swept across a swath of the Chamberlin. The fire must have been funneled there by wind. They burned those mothers right down to the ground level...

The big fire in Manchester and Lacey in 1995 really screwed me over. The 1995 aerial seems as if was taken the next day! I can't see detail with all that charcoal! The 2007 is much better, but things do change. 2007 must have been a wet year.

I love looking at maps and aerials. I can while away hours surveying the land. It's super-interesting to me. I created this thread to share some things I find. If you have things to contribute, go for it. I pore over maps and aerials looking for new exploring places. I like looking for...

How 'bout I just turn the monitor upside down!

Yeah, my understanding is that Scott (RedneckF350) attends every year in just a loin cloth and beads. :D

That is really cool looking.

Here's the wide view: (although you'd have to define "deep in the woods". This is REAL deep).

Maybe here?

Gawd, I bet that day was rough! Reminds me of the time some friends and I were drinking a bit in Country Lakes. We get 3 rubber rafts together and went downstream to join Mount Misery Brook. Don't recommend it. Your was worse, I just know it.

I think Jon means driving on the beach. My neighbor used to go throughout the summer. He would drive on, throw his line in the water, and put the rod in the holder. His family would lie on the beach or take a dip in the water. Definitely not totally fair. His truck was eaten up by salt after a...

Have you ever gone here Al? A kind of ridge. Very cool. Did a PBX trip in 2001 or so that crossed it.

Maybe the wind drove ESE in between the ridges too fast to light the ridges up good?

Nice shot of Buzby's in here. http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2018/02/vintage_photos_of_neighborhood_food_stores_in_nj.html

I can understand your hesitation.
