Robert,
Where in the photo is the quarry you spoke of in your post below? I'd like to check it out (from a distance) sometime.
Thanks,
Matthew

Thanks for writing.
It's here https://boydsmaps.com/#17.00/39.734407/-74.498189/napp90/0.00/0.00
But this pic was taken in 1994 and there is no water in the picture. It's got a nice little lake in the upper left corner now with crystal clear water. You can't get there with a vehicle, and i believe it's posted. Wish it were public access. It's soo pretty. Like the carribean.

Robert,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't you be able to find out who owns that property by looking at a tax map? I'd be willing to take a trip down to (Chatsworth?) town hall and check it out. Who knows-the landowner might be a little sympathetic to the cause
Later,
Matthew

I really believe that this is owned by Rutgers. However, I may be wrong.

Hmmm...
Rutgers Camden I assume? For what purpose? Botany maybe? I remember when I was in marine biology in high school (about 4 years ago) the teacher told us about an area that was either a quarry or charcoal manufacturing place that was of special interest to bontanists. It seems that the land was entirely stripped of vegetation by a practice such as gravel mining or clear cutting, and as a result only certain, special plants grow there that are found very few other places in the U.S. Could this be the spot?
