Cabin in the Woods (aka Return to Kakiat)

Sunday was about as gorgeous as anyone could hope an October weekend to be. The air was crisp and refreshing, without being overly chilly. The sun was shining. It was a perfect day for a stroll in the woods. The goal was to find the abandoned cabin in the woods that we failed at finding last time. I vaguely remembered its location and we set off to it immediately after arriving. It didn't take long, honestly. A short walk from the parking lot, past the dog park, through some deep piles of leaves, along the Mahwah River, and finally up the hill.

Watchung Reservation...Months Later

I've been sitting on quite a few pictures from trips over the past few months. I figure I should attempt to catch up. So, first up, Watchung Reservation. I took the trip to Watchung Reservation back in March. It is the largest park in Union County, NJ and has a lot to offer. There are stables, horse and hiker friendly trails, a golf course, an abandoned village, a museum,  and a large picnic area complete with a playground. One of the most notable things while driving up was the land bridges that allow wildlife to cross over the highway.

Explorations were mostly limited to the abandoned Feltville, the pine plantation, and some other minor trails.

Not abandoned, but pretty sweet
