    Visiting the ruins of the Batsto trestle

    We drove down Riders Switch to the tracks. At one spot we sunk in mud and our tracks filled in with water. It was perfectly flat prior so nobody has at least driven back there for some time.

    Visiting the ruins of the Batsto trestle

    We were out yesterday and stopped by the trestle. To our surprise. It was still smoldering. We could smell the creosote burning in the smoke.

    Small Fire In P'Town Today.

    Fortunately, today was not conducive for rapid fire spread. I heard it was a very slow moving fire.

    Buck Run, A PBX Hike

    It was great seeing everyone again and meeting John. It was nice having Cole out this trip. He recovered well from the pollen after a nice shower. He’s ready to do another one maybe not in May though lol.

    Atsion River?

    Yes. Around there. That canal has been on my list of places to explore for a while. I just never seemed to make it there. It would be interesting to see if there’s a pipe under where it crosses.

    Atsion River?

    I suspect you are right. It was my first thought as well. It seem like a lot of work for not alot of water but it resembles Salters Ditch.

    Atsion River?

    This is great. I’ve never seen this map. I’ve often wondered about what looked like a canal south of Atsion Lake. It can easily be seen on old aerials and LIDAR. It didn’t seem to connect to anything which left me confused. This map clearly shows it and what it was intended for.

    Fire in Greenwood Forest Ocean County Near Jones Road

    How many times have you heard me say fire is fire. Backfires can burn as hot as the main fire and it’s impossible to tell the difference just by heat. That was a very HOT fire.
