We actually came up on this guy just as he got stuck. He was standing on his hood, he had a young girl in the backseat. She was beyond embarrassed.. can’t blame her! So my pal goes to him… “what did you do that for”… sounding like John Wayne hahaha. Anyway we called it in from Atsion. There was no signal there. It was all wheel drive Lol… not.
"Into the Unknown - The Jersey Devil"
Watched this on Discovery Plus yesterday, fun way to pass some time on a stormy evening. It is originally from the Travel Channel, might be available on other streaming services. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11991002/ Several good "laugh out loud moments" and the whole premise is pretty...

My favorite canoe currently, canvas/cedar. Custom made for Duluth Pack for a very special race. I was able to purchase this years ago. Anyone else a canoe junkie?
Expedition X also did a Jersey Devil episode.

Lots of questionable claims, as usual. However, towards the end they interview a guy who claims he knows what the Jersey Devil is (was?). He thinks it's some kind of huge, scary looking bat - and it really did look like many of the Jersey Devil illustrations, you can see it in the photos here. But the problem is, that bat has only been found in Africa (I think). But his theory was, the bats got into the cargo holds of ships that came to NJ from Africa and were then sighted.
Perhaps a bit of a stretch, but it did seem like one of the more reasonable theories.

Yes, if anything, that "bat" fits the bill! Imagine seeing that out your window back in the day..
I know the person who owns JerseyDevil.com. That site needs to be put to good use. I wonder if there is enough content on the actual subject to make it a viable project.
Bill Sprouse's "The Domestic Life of the Jersey Devil" seems to be the most reasonable explanation for the legend in my opinion. Essentially unfriendly Quakers.
Also, was that Audi new? Doesn't look like it had a front plate on it. What a way to break your car in.
It looked very new, very well maintained. I saw it from quite a distance back and was wondering what the heck is that... The fellow standing on the hood was in his mid 30's, very well dressed, as if he just left a Manhattan office. He had a huge gold watch on. He was not happy, and that poor girl, so embarrassed. That puddled was like 60' long it seemed and very wide. He obviously had no business out there.
