Older locations have been archived.

7/14/08

In the woods in Goshen, between Routes 47 and 657 (Court House/South Dennis Road).

7/11/08

Wetlands near the Great Bay River, downriver from Lower Bank.

7/10/08

In the woods off Port Elizabeth/Cumberland Road, near Ormund. Way out in the woods. Mondo bonus points for difficulty if you get there without a GPS.

7/7/08

Wetlands, Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, on Great Bay.

7/6/08

In the woods off Inskip Road (AKA Blue Anchor Fireline Rd.) Looks like Winslow, Camden County, is the nearest town.

7/4/08

Estell Manor County Park, south of Mays Landing. A serious challenge for the No Batteries Geohash achievement.

7/2/08

Heisler Road, Dorchester.

7/1/08

Wetlands east of Cape May Court House. You might be able to get there if you go to Scotch Bonnet (on Stone Harbor Road) and rent a boat, then go up the channel.
