"Stephens State Park, Hackettstown, NJ
Did a short loop on the Red and Orange trails. Snow was wet, slushy and still quite deep in places. Recommended for masochists only."
"TJ,
Good luck with the Resolution. I've always enjoyed your contributions

These were from yesterday, worthless today!"
"Point Mountain South, Lebanon Township NJ 1/12/14
Not much to talk about, snow and ice all gone, trails muddy in places."
"Hi TJ…great write-up as usual. Many years ago, when Harriman was literally my back yard, I could walk out my door for a 2-3 day trip. I think I've hiked all the trails in the park, including 1 day hikes of the RD (my favorite) and…"

Along the Blue Mountain and Silver Mine Trails, still some small patches of color:"
"Van Campen's Glen, Friday 10/18
Not much color, lots of leaves down."
"Old Mine Road was closed at Millbrook Tuesday AM. I don't know about the other end."
"Beautiful."

"Welcome back, Eric. And thanks for keeping the resource alive!"
"Hi all, Eric here from NJ1K. Long story short, I got free hosting from an acquaintance several years ago from which I hosted NJ1K. When they ran a software upgrade about 8 months ago, the site stopped working. So I decided to buy a virtual private…"
"Thanks for another good write-up. Interestingly, my only encounter with a bear in the Water Gap was on the Garvey Springs Trail. About halfway down; we saw each other at around 100 feet apart. I stood still and the bear took off in the opposite…"
"Enjoyed your write-up. I seldom visit Stokes, and was unaware of the Silvermine. I like finding old mines, so this goes on my "to do" list. "

Rockneath?
Posted on September 4, 2012 at 5:37pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
In his book "Harriman Trails: A Guide and History", author William Myles describes "Rockneath", a cabin built against a large boulder just north of Almost Perpendicular off the Blue Disc Trail in Harriman Park. It's described as having windows, a fireplace, double deck bunks and a spring nearby. Although it was built in 1928, it seemed to me that there might be remains of such an elaborate structure, and I decided to try to find it.

Walking along the Spruce Run in Micquin Woods this morning, things are still looking pretty wintery, looking closer, however, there are Skunk Cabbages coming up! Can Spring be far behind?
