Did you see the Jersey Devil?

I didn't think you could climb this. It was gated off last time I was there. I'm jealous.

This is the coolest shot I have ever seen from the pine barrens. Well done!

I haven't been up that jawn in over a decade. I miss being out there in the middle of the Pines.

That’s a dope shot, adding it to my itinerary of possible weekend shenanigans

It's so funny how flat jersey is. When you see the city from Montco it literally looks like you're looking down on the buildings.

On a clear night (and sometimes during the day), you can get a good view of center city and the Domino lane radio towers from West Norriton. Around the intersection of Germantown Pike and Park Ave is a good vantage point.

Nah, but I saw you.... fucking quakers.

Fun fact: the Jersey Devil is the 13th of Mrs Leeds. Who's Leeds? He's just a local politian people hated. It would be like if we were like "trump's son is a shit monster---> that's the ol' trump shit monster---> 'let's go shit monsters' *clap *clap *clapclapclap!"

Note it requires planning - that tower ranges from “closed” to “maybe” to “come by any time” since it’s just individual rangers keeping it available

I’ve also personally been cautious of it because ticks, not that that’s a dealbreaker.

Did you make it to the top? Climbing that tower was the most terrifying thing I've ever tried to do. I only made it a few flights before I got totally disoriented and had to climb back down on my butt. My friend only made it one more flight than I. Cool as fuck place though.

I did- climbing wasn’t the issue , going down with camera gear was- at one point my lens became disconnected from the body and it smashed down two flights. Fortunately no damage !

If it’s manned it’s open to climb . The hike to it and surrounding trails make it worth a visit regardless of its status

Check out South Jersey trails for info on hikes in the area

So they were there and let you go up? I guess maybe they got tired at yelling at people and are trying to figure out a way to make sure people are safe but can still enjoy the view. I was so bummed last time I went and it was locked off.

My two favorites are behind the Arcoloa Intermediate School and Potshop Rd between Township Line and Skippack Pike, near Worcester Stables around 40.17372393257792, -75.3432066611898 . You can see the city from both.
