Location

Lenel Rd., just off I-80 east of Netcong, Morris County, NJ

Participants

Plans

We'll be heading out to a mountain hike that morning, and this location is practically along the way. We'll stop by around 9AM either on the way out, or 3-4PM on the way back. Will share pictures from the top of the climb, should be very cool!

Expedition

We are never "running early". We got to the mountain hike about 10:20, climbed Mount Tamanny where we got a spectacular view of the Pennsylvania side of the Water Gap, and hiked down, getting back to our car around 3PM. We had lunch at the top, but the hiking made us all hungry (and too tired to cook at home!) so the geohash gave us an incentive to find a place to eat in the Dover area.

We got to the crossing around 4:20PM (hurr hurr hurr 420), where I took a few pictures of the site, then headed off to Olive Garden. I know I know, with all the places to close from, we went there for dinner? Well, kids are finicky even when they're hungry, so there it is.
