Boyd, I guess its just the best one i have been exposed to. I have heard of a couple and this seemed to be the one that was a much more versatile app. I like being able to load the many layers available for it... historic maps, Multi vehicle use, BLM, Street, Topo, etc. Planning a cross country...

There was some pretty deep water. Thankfully some of it we were able to use the go arounds. I have no interest in getting stuck! i always thought the silo/barn ruins were the tavern until i learned differently. this time, armed with some info that Boyd posted a while back from Iron in the...

Thanks for thoughts on that part of the route guys. i was trying to put that together myself. So i took a ride out today and checked some of the sites out. A little wet out, but nothing the jeep cant handle. Hit up Washington and finally (i think) found the tavern cellar hole. NW corner the next...

I was not expecting the can of worms that this idea has opened. Wow, I am finding little tidbits, sometimes contradictory, everywhere. Additional locations and route spurs seem to pop up with every new source found. i found this fascinating little booklet while searching out info on Cooper's...

Wow. these maps are awesome. thanks! And no, i didnt realize they were two different routes. How do you figure our what the routes were? Book of some sort maybe? That would be really interesting. But in any case, great ideas for new places to check out! thank you!

Hi all. I was hoping to get some info for an upcoming adventure. I would like to take the route that the Quakers took from Philadelphia to Egg Harbor many years ago. I'm not really sure where to start, but i am off-road capable so i want to do as much original as possible and was hoping maybe...

sorry, didn't catch the new messages here. I only really looked at it closely the first time my wife brought it home. It seemed to be metal. i can try chipping at the bottom i suppose and see what happens. I think i thought metal because of the grooves in the center of the hole as well. it is...

more than 1 ruin at harrisville? now that you mention it... i had previously found the ruins noted on the topozone map above. right at the canmpground entrance. the fenced in ruins. but in reading a new (couple years) pine barrens book the author notes that the whole town is there somewhere? i...

great thanks. didn't know if they were active or not. never been by there this time of year. hopefully we'll find some still this weekend then.

We'll be camping this weekend in wharton, at wading pines i think it is called,and wanted to see if anyone knew anywhere nearby where I could take some photos of the cranberries. of the paved road is fine , but nowhere that'll need any serious "mudding". want to get some pics and hang out and...

so what happens if you are homeless and need to get a state ID i wonder? I thought there was something happening a year or so ago so they could get an ID for every person when they were talking about needing an ID to vote. I'm sure one of the prized possesions of someone homeless is their SS...

thats what i was thinking when i saw it. cemeteries are the only place i've seen with posts that small. most of them i've seen have the hole in 2 different sides, but i've occasionally seen them where it was a wide plot where there was a post or two in between the corners. i have never seen one...

not barrens related (as far as i know:mrgreen:) but you guys seem to have a lot of archaeological knowledge here so thought i would throw this out there. my wife picked up a metal fence post (?) at a flea market this weekend. it is about 2 to 2.5 feet tall and solid metal with a hole through...

i bought this one specifically for driving in the pines. http://www.heartlandamerica.com/browse/item.asp?PIN=52049& explorist400. also got a 1GB SD card for 9.99 from amazon for it. also bought the map software from magellan for 9.99 (offer came in the box) it has been great...

Hi, I've been lurking here for a while and was welcomed when i posted a pic a short while ago so i figured i would get around to saying hi. i live outside of philadelphia and just discovered that the woods were so close by. i had no idea until i went on a drive with a few friends up by lebanon...

yep. looked like it was a well this winter when we went by there. less vegetation so you could see better. this isn't that clear of a pic , but this is when we found it.had to pull some trash out of it while we were there. looked like someone was using it as a trash can. :( cute little geocache...
