Checking the effects of rain in the Jersey Pine Barrins.....

After all the rain we've been having, I thought I'd take a ride to Jersey and check out some new trails there.

I had to cross this..see me on the other side ?

Story for the next couple of pics..........these trails were new to us, and since I have the highest air intake, my buddies decided that it would be best to hook a strap onto my hitch, and throw me and the money pit into the puddles to see how deep they were.
Everything went fine, until I found a really deep spot, started to flaot, and lost all traction. Many thanks to Joe (and his Mazda) or else I'd probably still be out there.

Needs more mud, a little less water, and maybe a set of swimies

Anyway, we had a blast. If anyone wants to go to the Pine Barrins of New Jersey, just drop me a note, and I'll try to set something up.

Here's some of my friends.

The Pine Barrens are a lot of fun. This was me last year, and belive it or not, I was not stuck, but I had to back out though, cause I couldn't go forward anymore.

How about some directions to the pine barrons? I would be taking the G.S. Parkway South?[addsig]

I live just on the border of the pinelands so if you get something together let me know. We're always in for a ride through the pines. :cool: [addsig]

Yeah the parkway south works
lol
But you'll definatly want to go with someone else...the bogs and puddles have a way of swallowing vehicles whole !!!!!!!

They just closed the trails i normally go on (to many people dumping garbage and junk, can't argue with their logic there), so I'm scouting out some new ones.
If you want togo (after i find some good ones) Email me at PASmokeater@comcast.net and I'll be glad to keep you informed.

Also, keep in mind that I go to Paragon alot.....not to far from Philly area (about 2 hours) and would be able to get a group going up there....again, Email me if your interested
I have pics of both the pines and paragon, so ask and I'll send you a couple.

If you go to the Atsion Ranger Station on 206, they have maps and can tell you what trails are open. If jerk-offs keep dumping their garbage in there, they will close down all the trails, so please, whatever you take with you, make sure it goes home with you for proper disposal.[addsig]
