Warren Grove

[Ben Ruset]

I was out by Warren Grove today. I was exploring the pine plains a bit when I started hearing jet noises. For some reason I thought they only used the range on weekend days.

I drove up Bombing Range Rd. until I hit the gate. There was a small crowd watching jets basically just flying in circles. They weren't doing any bombing runs or anything.

I managed to get a marginally okay photo. Would have liked to have had a longer lens.

F16?

 

[Ben Ruset]

I think you're right.

Still a nice photo.

I was in Green Bank recently and they flew over.

I have seen them do runs on week days many times,as a matter of fact the only day I have not encountered planes out there is on Sunday.
Being they are Air Reserves you would think they would do runs on sunday though?

Dont forget Some of these Jets come from outside South Jersey. Also not all are Reserves(someone else told me that)

I worked out there a couple Sundays ago and I believe we were told that they don't fly on Sundays.

Go,one day a week I can go out there and not be blasted by those infernal jets! God Bless em,I just can't stand the noise.

So, besides the pygmy pines, is there anything to see in the plains? The 1930s aerials and the historic maps don't show much. I'm guessing industry just ignored it for obvious reasons...?

I know of what appears to be an old sled for hauling logs along an old medder edge on the east edge of the plains just west of Westecunk creek.I can give coord if you interested.It is half buried in the mud and would be interesting to dig out and get a better look.

 

[Ben Ruset]

Sure! Send me along the coordinates!

 

[Teegate]

Is that the one we past by on PBX when you were not with us?
