Yeah the Pine Barrens are a really amazing place really. I've hiked sections before but this year I plan on doing it end to end. My favorite thing about the pines is the ecosystem. I love studying the plants and animals that I come across in this area. There are a few plants and critters that are found only in this area. There are carnivourous plants and blue and huckleberries like you wouldnt believe. If you can deal with the ticks and chiggars its a wild place.
