Old Mine Road

  • 05/20/2005

Lots of pics; let ’em load. Old Mine Road runs through much of the Northwest corner of the state, mostly along the Delaware River. We found 3 points of interest so far within Warren County: the 3 minute traffic light, stone ruins of some buildings on the side...

Union Cemetery

  • 05/20/2005

This cemetery’s location and its condition are what make it so interesting. It can be found in Wyckoff, just off a main road. There’s a sign for the cemetery right along the road, but it’s actually much further back. We walked down the trail and past 3 or...

Green Sergeant’s Covered Bridge

  • 05/20/2005

NJ’s last “original” covered bridge and one of only two in the state, the Green Sergeant’s bridge almost met its end in 1960. The bridge was dismantled to make way for a “more modern” bridge. Well, the people didn’t take too kindly to the old bridge being taken...

Scarborough Covered Bridge

  • 05/20/2005

One of only two covered bridges left in NJ, Scarborough is tiny as far as covered bridges go; it’s only 55′ long. Depending on who you talk to, this bridge isn’t even considered a “true” covered bridge since it was only built in 1959.

Hut of The Gatherers – 2 Years Later

  • 05/20/2005

Originally visited 6/03 I decided to go back to the hut to get some better photos and possibly talk with anyone who may be there. Well, after 2 years I was rusty with the directions, and we got lost for a good 20 minutes or so. We stumbled...

Aetna Furnace

  • 04/20/2005

Virtually nothing is left of Aetna, or Etna, Furnace. This place, once a furnace, forge, and mill, is now nothing more than a hill with crumbling bricks on it. The dirt road leading to the furnace site is 1/4 mile in length and takes you right to the...

Thompson’s Beach

  • 04/20/2005

Note to self: Consider investing in waders. Thompson’s Beach, much like Seabreeze or Grassy Sound, was a tiny little-known town on the water. The road leading out to is was surrounded by marsh and was difficult to upkeep. Eventually the township decided maintaining a lone road that led...
