Cattus Island County Park (Tom's River, NJ) - 02/28/2010

When I checked the snow depth maps it looked like there should be 1 inch of snow along the shore where the rest of the state was buried in snow. Sure enough, I found there to be no snow to 1 inch and rarely maybe 3 inches deep for very short distances at Cattus Island County Park. There has been a lot of melting but there is a great network of boardwalks and trails raised with wood chips so for the most part your feet stay dry. There were… Continue

Michael Huber Prairie Warbler Preserve (Woodland Township, NJ) - 02/21/2010

Hiked around 7 miles at High Mountain Preserve Park in Wayne, NJ. There are two different maps online but I liked this one the best. I ended up giving my copy to a couple of guys who were lost going in the opposite direction when I was near the end.
