KATHY, KAY & DIANE, this dynamic trio of Leaders, will take us on a trip to Merrill Creek Reservoir. This is one of many reservoirs that drain into the Delaware River Basin in times of drought. We will hike the perimeter trail which is exactly 5.5 miles and circles the entire distance around the lake. The trail consists of gravel roads and wooded areas and crosses two dikes and the main dam. The leaders enjoyed watching bald eagles nesting in spring when they explored this park. Pack a lunch and water, as an optional 2.5 mile walk will be offered after the lunch break and will cover the historic area of the park. This is an all day event, so plan accordingly.
1st MEET: 8:30 A.M. @ parking area off Bus. Route 222 (5th St. Hwy.) behind McDonald’s and in front of Salvation Army and left of Walmart.
2nd MEET: 10:00 A.M. @ Merrill Creek Visitor Center, 34 Merrill Creek Road, Washington, New Jersey.
TELEPHONE: Kathy 610-603-9461, Kay 610-796-7602 or Diane 610-488-0231 should you have any questions.
