The Whip-poor-will are cool! I heard them in the Weiser State Forest close to home. I live only about 15 miles from a tract and there were two going at it after my hike last week. It was nice listening to them while sitting there having a cold drink before heading home. For all the times I’ve been there that was the first time I’ve heard them.
We usually burn those suckers in a campfire because they defoliate the trees. The creek you referred to is Wading River…a popular waterway for kayaking.
Its one of the great conundrums of the eastern forest landscape, in my opinion. Who would think, or believe, that some of the truly deepest wildest forest in the mid - Atlantic is located within the most densely populated state in America. From my perspective, the abundance of insects, critters, and overall life, is indicative of the health of the forest- but I suppose there is a reason why this land has been cursed, forgotten, and avoided, by man over the centuries... A truly fascinating place, thanks for showcasing this amazing region. 👍
He's got a bag of pistachios on him because he is paying homage to Repairman Jack Secret Histories, Secret Circles, and Secret Vengeance books. He'll meet a q'qr and encounter pine lights.
"I'm getting pooped on". Sorry but LOL. I've never seen those caterpillars in such a large group like that ever. Love the whipper will, hardly hear them anymore in MI.
Cliff, you are much braver than we are, Leanne was all squeamish telling the screen for you to move, but my hat is off to you. The personalized journal was a top shelf gift from a regular viewer. I really enjoyed that trek down to your prehistoric lake/creek....cheers for sharing a great video.
Cliff, RIP... Bitten by pine barren flies and Mosquitos and devoured by caterpillars :)P.S. and ticks!!!!! Those are "tent" caterpillars. and they do invade a lot of deciduous trees in New Jersey and have to be spray controlled. They form "tents" in the trees . I see you commented on that, I comment as I watch by pausing, so sometimes I am redundant:( I spent all day driving Pine Barrens roads and almost never saw any cars , it was great! Wild Turkeys are a whole different breed, Ben Franklin wanted to make them our National bird, thank goodness he didn't, but they are Wiley creatures, not like the bred ones. Whippoorwills and Chuck Wills widows are Nightjars, I remember them from my farm days .... lots of legends about them calling for peoples souls if they heard them...yikes! I loved the calls of the Eastern at Towhees, "Drink your Tea", at 38:50 , what a great start to the day after the invasion...so devastating. The Carranza Memorial isn't too far from the Apple Pie Hill Fire tower. I knew Mr. Parker from Parkerstown who manned it. I used to visit him in the tower and we talked about the old days and how fires devastated the pines. I believe his father had died in one of those fires. If anyone reads this, don't miss the next episode:) Cheers, Rik Spector
Our favorite local picnic area is being decimated by gypsy moths. No leaves on the trees, hundreds in the covered picnic table areas. They can be toxic or cause a nasty rash so you don’t want to get their hairy bodies on you! Sullivan’s Monument or Newtown Battlefield is the location that I’m referencing. It a real shame. Such a beautiful, peaceful place to spend the day or camp.
Wow, that was an interesting place. A bit spooky looking . I’d be glad to trade the caterpillars for the Jersey Devil . He’d probably make better company. You’re braver than me. I would’ve been a bit afraid to stay there without any other campers. Thank you for the experience. We always learn something new by your videos.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pine_Barrens#:~:text=The%20Pine%20Barrens%20is%20a,acclaimed%20creative%20nonfiction%20literary%20style. I read this book back when people still had time to read. LOVED John McPhee. The place looks a lot less scary now
Whew! All those BUGS! I like to sometimes think of myself as someone who enjoys "the Great Outdoors" but MAN, ALL THOSE BUGS! I'da been OUTTA THERE, POST HASTE! Now we know why nobody else was out there camping and you had the whole place to yourself! THANK YOU, Cliff, for suffering for us so we don't have to go out there and camp in Caterpillar City. It is much appreciated. P.S. - I'd like to go see / explore those Pine Barrens myself, but I think I may just do a 'rolling tour' from the comfort of my air conditioned car!
I had to pause your video, when you identified those catapillers as gypsy moths. To my understanding, they are very invasive and destroy native trees and native plants in So. New Jersey. I had family in Cumberland Co., and one summer their trees were hanging with gypsy moth lanterns to rid them. Check out Fortescue Beach on the Delaware River, So. Jersey. I hope it's still there! Thanks for the video! I'm going to carry on now 👍😉
About four or five years ago, before I retired, a friend and I both took a couple of days off work to make a long weekend of fly fishing down along the Trask river in Oregon. We each took our camp trailers and when we arrived at our campground it was overrun with gypsy moth caterpillars, far worse than your video. Within minutes of setting up camp they were crawling up our chair legs and onto our trousers. It was pretty disgusting. It got so bad we backed our pickup trucks up to the campfire and dropped our tailgates and set our camp chairs up in the beds of our trucks. It really only bought us a few minutes of relief. They were crawling up the wheel wells and dropping out of the trees. The next day my wife got off work and drove down to join us. She could only stand it for a couple of hours, and she's not at all squeamish, it was just overwhelming, being crawled on en masse. She headed home and about half way there she felt one crawl out of her hair and onto her neck. To her credit she managed to keep the car on the road. To add insult to injury there were huge mats of these creepy crawlies floating on the river and the fish wouldn't touch them, and they seemed to put them off their feed completely. One of those weekends where the main benefit was in the stories you get to tell about it afterwards. The moths seemed to move on though, and the campground was fine in subsequent years and most of the trees survived.
Fantastic video thanks Cliff. Rather caterpillars pooping on you could be a pelican then you would be in strife. The birdsong was beautiful. Thanks for taking me along. Please stay safe and take care
I lived in Bass River Pineland area for many years until I retired and moved out west. The black water you see is cedar water which is very cold and super refreshing to swim in. It stains your clothes but washes out when you wash your clothes. I love the whipple wills they would put me to sleep at night, miss them very much. The gypsie moths haven't decreased at all I see. Hope you enjoyed your stay.
That place looks like a great place to camp, I love how it looks like hardly anyone goes there. Cliff remember, when you stay in a tent, never leave any tarp stick out from underneath your tent, it will funnel the rain right under your tent floor and can make for a wet tent.
My family on my dad's side were pine barren residents since early 1700s .Catapillers don't eat pine needles lol so they chose a unlucky place. Moscitoes on the other hand love new flesh and often wait til evening to feast. Have fun and thanks for the memories. Ps I can take you to every ghost town south of Trenton. Have fun
I came across a homeless guy in the woods and I asked him what he needed, he said a can of corn beef hash.. If I asked my kids what they needed, they's say a new car..
Great to see you in my neck of the woods. I’ve lived in the pinelands of New Jersey all my life. I live not far from the Carranza Memorial now. I was wondering when you were there. On Sunday June 19th 13,500 acres of the Pine Barrens were lost by fire in the Wharton State Forest, which is close to Batsto and Atsion areas
@@jayforkner2692 I figured it had to be prior to the fire. They are saying it was caused by an illegal camp fire. So devastating but the forest will live on.
@@housemousell luckily I was on vacation in Nova Scotia at the time because I work in Hammonton and I would have had to go out of my way to Atco to get to work with 206 being closed. I drove down it Friday morning so sad but I’ve seen many fires in the pines in my life. It will bounce back.
We had them in our Walnut tree, it was so hard to get rid of them. My sister was sitting on the porch, and a sack broken and a bunch fell on her. My parents ended up cutting the tree down.
I backpacked back when It was Congeree Swamp National Monument. You could only use a stove to cook on back then. No fires were allowed unless you stayed in their primitive camp ground. It's know for having some of the oldest trees. I live about half hour away from it. That was a long time ago when I backpacked there. Those catapillows remind me of the love bugs in Florida. Great video 👍👍
I remember camping with gypsy moths, many years ago. Individually they aren't too bad. Enmass they are creepy. I enjoyed hearing the whipoorwills. I haven't heard one since I was a kid.
I am so glad that you are apparently not sensitive to those caterpillars. Around here in maine, some people suffer horribly. They are allergic to the hairs. We get them pretty bad sometimes. But I've never seen them anything like that !
Too many caterpillars to enjoy sitting around outside, which I like to do. That was the biggest fly I've ever seen. Wow! Sad to see the trees stripped. I'm surprised birds weren't feasting. I have seen caterpillar poop before and didn't know it. Thanks for the education! It looked like you had both gypsy and tent caterpillars.
Next time bring your kayak! That would be fun! We just hiked around the Maurice River Bluffs Preserve and visited the East Point Lighthouse. Watch out for those flies though I got attacked as soon as I got out of my car lol.
I recall Gypsy moths while hiking/camping on the AT in Pine Grove/Micheaux. They pooped so much it accumulated on the folds of the tent. That was 40 years ago. Still a problem I guess...
@@thewanderingwoodsman7227 it's beautiful there and the high point monument view is awesome. You can look off and see Jersey one way . NewYork the other and PA the other way.
Hi Cliff, I quite like caterpillars but not that much, I would have been out of there for 3 reasons, the caterpillars, the ticks and the thunderstorm. Each to their own though and like you said, it's an experience you won't forget. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
Our area had a go round with those nasty Gypsy Moth caterpillars this year too. Whole mountainsides bare of any leaves on the trees. Even contributed to a fairly large brush fire a week or so ago. I'm glad they decided to spray for them or it could've been much worse.
All those bugs would creep me out. Your fire smoke most likely helped those bugs to leave.Bugs don't like smoke. I read that forest is pretty haunted. Thanks for the video! Belle in AZ.
Love the video, but I think I'll pass on camping there. I would be afraid I'd wake up and those caterpillars would be all over me. 😫😟. Nope they can have that campsite.😁. Love, respect and positivity always. Neita.✌🖖🕯🦋🌠🌻✨🏕♨️🚶♀️🙂👋👣.
Great Video, the night that WW was attacked by caterpillars. They look like gypsy moth, is there's enough of them you can hear them deforesting the tree canopy. Jersey has the highest bear population in the USA because they will not use hunting seasons to control the population. Great new opportunities in another state.👍
wait for the night time in the middle of it you're going to hear thousands of Little Feet all over your tent they're going to make a giant nest and you can't get out that's what gypsy moths do
My only experience with the pine barrens is driving though. When I was a kid we rode through them over many summers on the way to Long Beach Island. Always fascinating to me. I do know the gypsy moth caterpillars very well, unfortunately. They are invasive. And by the way, the oversensitive woke zombies of course don't like that name and have tried to change it.
I think I heard one of the caterpillars say, "Fee, fi, fo, fum...I smell the blood of a Pennsylvanian"...
Hahaha 😂
😂🤣😂
Omg, Cliff , I’m watching video and I’m hollering at the TV for you too get OUT OF HERE !!!
Hawkins Bridge is a pickup point for canoes and kayaks. Take the trip at micks canoe rental and check out long Beach Island beaches
The critters know rain is coming so looking for shelter then along comes Cliff with a tent and food lol

Yyyyyyaaaaaahhhh!! You went to the NJ pine barrens. It's a different world from your part of PA.
We usually burn those suckers in a campfire because they defoliate the trees. The creek you referred to is Wading River…a popular waterway for kayaking.

Ticks, caterpillars and giant horse flies, I guess that’s why there are no other campers!

Wild Turkeys are a whole different breed, Ben Franklin wanted to make them our National bird, thank goodness he didn't, but they are

I’m getting itchy already……!

@@superditdit48 Me too!! I can stand the flies, but ticks and caterpillars….no way!
@@ruthgoebel723 green head flies are up there with ticks fleas and caterpillars. Give me spiders and snakes any day
No sightings of the Mighty Monarch? He's in the right spot (NJ Pine Barrens) for it.
Love them lonely beach sand and pine trees areas.Check out Basto area by Hammanton.
We call them army worms, I've seen a few of them this year so far. Not to many years ago the trees in this area were stripped of their leaves.
@@housemousell that's bad news
All those bugs is why I camp when it's cold. 😂
That's why I camp indoors! 😂🤣😂

The smoke from the fire gets rid of the bugs .
Brings back good memories I grow up In pemberton. Keep up the good work !!!
You're in my neck of the woods now. Grew up on LBI and ran around the pine Barrens a lot. Be sure to check out Batsto. Lisa~ Huntingdon Co., PA
You were at the junction of f Tulpehocken creek and Wading Rivers . Tulpe is gorgeous upstream from bridge

I’ve been seeing a ton of Spongy Moth caterpillars this year, deer flies and both deer and lonestar ticks. Good luck!
And this is why I don’t go camping lol
I keep beating you to the punch, i should wait for the end of the Video be4 icomment, Awesome video
that should be a lesson to you for future camping is to view the area, trees, foliage etc. before setting up tent.
Jake and Jenny w/ a little Poult or Chick.
I take a 20x30 tarp when camping, so we can still sit by the fire in a rain storm..

That forest will soon be barren to match its name with all those Gypsy moths.
try carrying a spray bottle of white vinegar for those insects. I bet your home town will love some of those gypsy moths LOL
Well they are azalea caterpillars! That’s what it’s called!!
Their had been a forest fire at Worthington forest not long ago
I wouldn’t want to put a tent up by the water. The bugs would be terrible.
What bird is making that revving up sound?
Did you see the Jersey Devil??
Nope
You need a broom and sweep. Them away and the pine barrens are one of s kind ecosystem , the only one of it's kind in the world
Segund!

Did you rescue the caterpillar from the fire?!
The stuff falling cliff, is Caterpillar crap honestly that's what it is.
So what would these caterpillars be doing if they didn't have you to bother?
So what was the reason why the caterpillar orgy happened was it because they sensed the storm coming thy were treading to higher ground
i hope those catapillers don.t eat your food!
This is caterpillar county!
Holy crap dude! What's up with the bugs!??
Very X-Files
Those caterpillars are gross. You have more gutts than I staying there.
Way too rustic for my liking, wow.
such weird behavior from those caterpillars
**shudder** caterpillars and ticks. Pass for me ....ewwww!!!
and you're lucky they are not mayflies
no sighting of the new jersey devil or another paranormal activity?
Nope
Now you know why the locals aren't camping there. They know what is going on there. Unfortunate. Did you bring any home with you?
There were several in the jeep when I got home.
