Talk by Daniel Chazin & Jim Simpson, Authors of  Afoot in Morris 

While perhaps not often featured as a top hiking destination, Morris County actually offers a wealth of open space and interesting hiking opportunities. More than 400 miles of trails traverse the wide variety of federal, state, county, and local parks and preserves in this New Jersey county, all of which are rich in natural and cultural history.  If you’re looking to plan the perfect hike in Morris County, you’re in luck! 

Join us for a discussion with the authors of Afoot in Morris! Their brand-new guidebook features in-depth descriptions of the trails and parks throughout Morris County, highlighting more than 50 parks, preserves, sanctuaries and other protected open space. Historical notes, sidebars on interesting facts and lore, recommended hikes, driving directions with GPS coordinates, and public transportation information are also provided. Nearly 100 detailed topographic color maps accompany the park descriptions, and full-color images throughout the book offer a glimpse of what you might expect to see out on the trails.  Adults only.  Registration required.
