What are the popular places people visit throughout the Pine Barrens?

I need some primary research for my Senior Seminar class research paper. Thanks!

Batsto village is probably the most visited. Whitesbog historic village, Chatsworth Cranberry Festival, Atsion Lake recreation center and Atsion mansion area are a few places that come to mind. Apple Pie Fire Tower (less so now because it is only open when a fire official is present). There is a very long list of places however but hopefully this helps.

By the amount of Graffiti at Brookbrae I would say it's very popular.

I'm looking to document the damages to these place. Brookbrae looks like a very good example! Thanks a lot

I have a bunch of pics I recently took on my DSLR of Brooksbrae if you're interested.

From what I've seen, that is probably one of the most visited (by the crowd we prefer to not associate with) places in the pines. There's also an abandoned water tower off Savoy that younger people definitely party at. Then the usual places like Batsto, Chatsworth, etc.

The first two places I went were Batsto and Smithville--the one by Leeds Point.
