Somebody who's been there before, could you please provide a good meeting point? Thanks! This is my first time going actually.

From talking with people who have gone before, I've found that going down RT. 542 until Batsto Quaker Bridge Road is a good place to start. I'm still not sure of a good meeting point, though. Suggestions?

Batsto Quaker Bridge Road

The Pine Barrens is a huge piece of land. Specifically we're talking about Wharton State Forest.

Where about is the rest area you're talking about?

surfkj · **Posted:** Thu Mar 26, 2009 11:42 am

not sure exactly which rest area to meet at. its exit 52 off the parkway. i dont know how you guys get here from the south but we can allways meet at the ranger station.

WarriorMP31B · **Posted:** Thu Mar 26, 2009 1:54 pm

I plan on avoiding the parkway. Are you talking about Atsion Ranger Station?

Previously, groups have met up at the Wharton ranger building.

I guess also know as the Atsion Ranger Station? Or is there a difference?

Address for spot I posted... 31 Batsto Road Hammonton, NJ 08037
Batsto Office: (609) 561-0024

is the main office for the actual park in its entirety located in Batso Village

I believe that the Atsion Office: (609) 268-0444 is more of a substation meant primarily for the administration of the Atsion camping areas

I'll just throw this up and if it doesn't work for anybody, let me know and we'll go from there.

Date: Saturday, 28 March 2009
Time: 10:00 A.M.
Location: Atsion Ranger Station

Apparently just north of the Atsion Ranger Station is a trail entrance. Can anybody verify this?

David Jr · **Posted:** Thu Mar 26, 2009 4:30 pm

Yes, it's called Quaker Bridge RD. Runs from Atsion to Batsto and has numerous trails branching off of it.
