THE HIKE:
The trail starts to the right of the parking lot. |
There are Allamuchy Pond Trail markers but only the eastern side of that loop exists. |
The Allamuchy Pond Trail leaves to the left heading towards Allamuchy Pond; we continued straight. |
Coming out at a parking lot ... |
... we made a hard right turn. |
The teal Highlands Trail joins in. |
Coming up on Deer Park Pond. |
Following the trails that loop around the pond. |
Leaving the pond ... |
... and passing by where we had taken the white trail earlier to retrace back to the parking lot. |
In the distance, an old Allamuchy Pond Trail marker for the western side of what used to be a loop, now completely overgrown. |
