Adventures in the South Jersey Woods
(or thereabouts)


Road deep in Wharton State Forest, October 19, 2003

For centuries, the pinelands of South Jersey have stood a world apart, despite their closeness to Philadelphia, New York City, and the East Coast megalopolis. It began with two young lads, whom spent many a year exploring this harsh wilderness (with only stops at Wawa, Mr. Bills, or an isolated diner to sustain them), who were joined later by a motley crew of other like-minded folk. This is a chronicle of some of their adventures in words and pictures, both in their own peculiar manner...
