I think he does not understand that the location in question was made when the sand company dug up the woods about 1978. It was all woods until then. The "mudders" did not cause it and would not be there if not for the sand company.

Perhaps you're right. Battles need to be chosen prudently. Why raise a ruckus about ORV use in an abandoned mining site such as this one?

Perhaps because it keeps the Horner Faithful coming back for more. Too bad there isn't a visit counter on the site; it would be interesting to see how many visit as not very many comment.

So I read some of his blogs. Did he say him and volunteers put up blockages to close roads. Did the state approve this? So this is the group to blame for the new rules around dead end roads etc. Like others posted some of those roads are used as kayak drops and hunting spots. I understand just wheeling and tearing up the place is a mess and shouldnt be done. but why do people who are enjoying the Pinelands legally have to pay the price.

Albert Horner had nothing to do with planning or physically placing the signs up. That has been in the planning for a while and was done by state employees and volunteers. The volunteers should not be blamed for anything. They do just that...volunteer.

Sure, it was originally opened by the sand mines, but that area was still very clean and untrammeled 13 years ago when PBX crossed it on the way to the Factory Branch. We met John Parker and his family there on that outing. He was hiking on it with his family. At the time he claimed he owned it--told us he had no issue with hikers using it. I think Al is right to post this damage. It is sickening. It is now Nature Conservancy property.
