New Jersey Turnpike

I left West Lebanon New Hampshire for the New Jersey Pine Barrens at around 6am.  It was -4 degrees that morning, everything was frozen solid and the ice already in the driveway was refrozen.  Even with the car warmed up the heater could hardly knock back the cold until the sun came up.

Starting out with almost no traffic, dawn in the New Hampshire mountains, a pleasant drive through New England country.  I remember watching sun rise above mist filled valleys, absolutely amazing views.  Six hours later I was on the Jersey turn pike.

As I mentioned in a previous post I’m on my way to the Tracker school.  Many people look perplexed when you tell them you are going to (or just came from) a survival school in New Jersey.  As Tom Brown tells it New Jersey is the front lines of an environmental war.  Most polluted, most densely populated, most sick state in the whole country.  You really notice it on the Pennsylvania New Jersey border I shot this video.
