Apple Pie Hill, Tabernacle, NJ

Had a great hike yesterday with Gina out to Apple Pie Hill, which is the highest elevated point in the New Jersey Pine Barrens.

We started by heading out to Tabernacle, and got as close as we could to it via GPS, using dirt roads. We parked, hiked for a bit, and couldn't find a connecting trail to the hill. We hiked a bit more, and emerged back on the dirt road, where we had parked. So we hopped in and decided to do a little offroading, and see if we couldn't get any closer. I have to say, I am more than a little impressed by my driving. Saab 900s were never exactly intended to be Rally Cars, but mine made it! And we got a couple of great photos for our trouble. Excellent trip, very worthwhile hike for the view from fire tower. On a clear day you can see the skylines of both Atlantic City and Philadelphia.
