Very buggy during the warm season!

The Mill Creek Trail entrance can be found behind the Stop & Shop at the Mill Creek Mall. The Trail loops back on itself and will take you close to the NJ Turnpike. As you walk you'll notice an extensive amount of tree trunks in the saltmarsh. The tree trunks that remain belong to a cedar forest that once covered a good portion of the Meadowlands during the 1700's. During that time period, most of the cedar trees were lumbered and the remaining died due to the salinity in the water. For more information on the history of the Meadowlands click on this link.

This is a tidal marsh. very likely it is gone. the only thing that is occuring is that geocachers are trampling down the local vegetation :-( Several paths have been created to GZ

DNF! Since I read the logs, maybe it washed away. My GPS said 1 foot away but no luck at all!

This was our last of the day. It was a great way to end it. The inside of the container was quite wet and the log is pretty bad. We're traveling and not real well equipped to help out, but we did have a spare ziploc and made a log from a few sheets of notebook paper. We added some sway including a Cleveland Metroparks geocaching pin. The stuff in the bag should be good to go. We had a great time on the trail. Thank you for bringing us to this unique area.
