ORV Management In Sensitive Areas Of Wharton
- Thread starter Teegate
- Start date
If you look at the "new" Wharton map,scroll over by Bodine Field where the Bass River border is, unfortunately you can see a non motorized there cutting from 679 to Shamong Rd, but it shows barriers at either end. It also continues off of Shamong heading NE, and also another a little further on Shamong headed in about the same direction. Hope I'm wrong and this is overflow from the Wharton map

If this person contacts you, please share the process for those of us who would like to bring something forward in our respective towns
Joe,
I'm the person introducing the resolution tonight, sometime after the meeting tonight or tomorrow I will post a copy with suggestions on how to move it in other towns.

Just received this from the NJOA
Let the troops know that NJOA is out in front of this issue. We are calling to set up a meeting with the commissioner on this Issue. We still need the calls to keep going to Trenton. That was a great letter you sent. Let the folks know that they may want to join the NJOA to help us keep serving their causes. I'll keep you posted.

FYI- there are several NEW Gates in the Waretown area between Rt 539 and Wells Mills Road area. https://scontent-lga1-1.xx.fbcdn.ne...=7bfa47238b76dd05c9df9db068dcbe7c&oe=5680347F
The road with the barriers on it goes to the Cutts Cranberry bogs, and has been gated for a long time.
It does appear, according to the MAP, that they have closed the old Oswego/Munion field road, and the Calico/Warren Grove Road.
Yep, I figured that was Cutts, and I agree on the other 2, hopefully its just a "suggestion" from Wharton

Mike, can you put that on a map by chance? I have seen those pictures circulating just not a definite on locations some of that land is conservancy, FRMC, and private land.
Yes the Post is leaning quite a bit. Does not seem like very stable ground in that area. No evidence of being knocked over or winched.
Here are 2 of the points where the pics were taken.

You can download as KMZ or GPX from this site as well
Closes off the pit. I would guess there are a couple more on Howarsdville Rd near the bogs as well.
All hail Cherokee261! Medford Lakes resolution in opposition passed!!

Wooohooo. That gate on Bryant road is really getting under my skin. I love that area all the way back to howardsville. I have never driven in that pit and nor do I ever care too. Isn't the pit nature conservancy land?
Great job cherokee261. Now let's get the blue print for success out to other towns.
That is the best news I heard all day !!!!
I want to thank Cherokee261 and all of the members of council in Medford Lakes for passing this resolution.
On a personal note ...that is only the second time since high school that I spoke in front of a group that I did not know. I find it very very uncomfortable. It is something I do not like doing and don't plan on doing again any time soon. Hopefully never.
