Nice work!

Here are some tree photos. Big oak. Another big oak, not sure what kind this one is. One of the maples. Maybe a Silver Maple? European Larch Eastern Hemlock. There's a ring of baby trees surrounding it. In the swamp. Lot's of these tiny ones around. Bald Cypress...

It's a great place, I just went there a bunch of times this past spring. Beautiful views of the river on the high banks. The area was part of the Weymouth village, and yes there were 2 mansions there. When you're on the trail you'll come to a fairly large hole with some rubble and ruins which I...

My wife and I go there often. One of the best restaurants in South Jersey, and definitely the best burger. Their specials are *interesting*, I had a turkey smash burger with gravy, stuffing, and cranberry sauce on it that was surprisingly great. @Boyd you should check it out, it's definitely...

I heard they were filming in Milmay, on the railroad tracks at the Tukahoe rd intersection.

The first few miles of the Batona from the trailhead in Bass River are really great, a nice variety of landscapes. The 1808 Trail in Wharton near Batsto goes through a beautiful cedar swamp on an old corduroy road. You can do a ~4 mile out-and-back or a longer ~9 mile loop via the Buttonwood...

Amazing photos!

Well, I ended up buying this a year later.

Is there an easy way to drive in close to mile-marker 5?

Another question: Does every mile have a half-mile marker? I seem to have missed documenting a few, but I'm pretty sure I would have seen them.

I have been logging the GPS coordinates of the markers as I (very slowly) hike the trail. What's a good place to share this info?

Thanks y'all, this is good info! Yes, I was looking for a map with the half-mile marker signs plotted. I'd love to see those paper versions, but I can understand if it's not really for the public. I was hiking on the Lenape Trail recently, and the NY–NJ Trail Conference has a really nice map...

Does anyone know, is there a map of the Batona with mile markers? Or some kind of digital version marked with GPS coordinates? I feel like something like this must exist.
