Hiking/ Boardwalks, marshes, and Jacki, at Cheesequake State Park
Cheesequake State Park (Matawan, NJ) has never let me down when wanting have a good time outdoors. This park has so much to offer, and I wanted to get some nice shots from all around the park. So Jackie and I headed over today to try to hit up some hot spots.

Enjoy!

Back into the woods, continuing on the blue trail. We took a detour onto a larger dirt road, and headed over to the Crabbers Bridge.

Just a few hundred feet after we made the right turn back onto the blue trail, we came across a very nice pond, wildlife blind, marsh, and tree farm.

We reached a 5 way intersection on the road. Even though I grabbed a shot of the Red trail entrance, we jumped onto the green trail for a while.
