Trail Description:
A very short, but very technical little trail that is really intended for hikers with large nasty roots crossing most of the trail and very wet during spring/fall/winter. Mutliple dirt tracks with large jumps created by MotoX riders from past years. Leads to a very steep and treacherous rock quarry dubbed Dino Park after dinosaur fossils and prints were discovered and excavated by archeologists. Some parts are very overgrown with thorny bushes, CHECK FOR TICKS! Steep climbs and descents at the rock quarry. No drop-offs... just cliffs 30+ ft in height! The Lenape Trail extends to many parts of N. New Jersey, though most of it is off limits to bicycles. I believe somewhere in East Mountain Reservation in W. Orange has an entire map of the area.

How to get there:
Livinston Township entrance at So. Livingston Ave. off Rt. 280.
