A warm hello to everyone from the Jersey shore! I grew up in the area of North Jersey that the AT traverses. Now, I enjoy exploring the back bays of the Pine Barrens. I've lurked here for awhile, so I'll offer a belated thank you for all the knowledge I've poached over the years! -Rob

I'm learning that NJ doesn't allow you to participate in dispersed/stealth camping. I'm seeing a bunch of camp grounds but in my experience they are noisy and crowded. How do you guys get outdoors here? Also, are they any camp grounds that are more spread out/private? Thanks in advance:22:

I received the following greeting from the kind folks at Practical Primitive today and thought I'd share. I use techniques they shared--particularly in my friction fire skill base. If I lived in NJ I would probably attend some of these listed workshops. I don't think there is anything similar...

I grew up using gravel pits and backyards, but those days seem to be behind us in NJ. I've been using indoor ranges the past few years, first Bob's Little Sport Shop in Glassboro and recently Shooter's in Little Egg, but I want to find an outdoor range to use my rifles, mainly .22s but also a...

Hello my fellow New Jersey-ans, As some of you may know, I have enlisted in the United States Coast Guard. I will be leaving soon for basic training, which happens to be in our great state at USCG Training Center Cape May. After graduation, the overwhelmingly strong chances are that i will...

I am visiting Wayne New Jersey for 48 hours. Can anybody recommend a good bushcraft/outdoors store where I can buy a good bushcraft knife? Kind regards Kieron

Hey Everyone, I'm fairly certain I'll be heading up to Worthington State Forest in North West NJ next weekend (Sept 29 or 30) I plan on doing a day hike to scout out the area. (ill be camping at the campground the following weekend (Columbus Day Weekend) with some friends and family and I...

As i mentioned at our first meet in Jackson, Sav and I have been thinking of a meet up north. Timothy recommended a specific group camp sight in Stokes State Forest, New Jersey. Timothy, which group sights did you like? Sav has also camped there before, and he recommended the regular (not...
