Oceanic Airlines Flight 815 was a scheduled flight from Sydney,
Australia to Los Angeles, California, United States, on a Boeing
777 owned by Oceanic Airlines.
Under mysterious circumstances, on September 22, 2004, the
airliner, carrying 324 passengers, deviated from its original
course and disappeared over the Pacific Ocean.
Two months later, wreckage presumed to be Oceanic Flight 815 was
found in the Sunda Trench which is in the Indian Ocean near Bali,
and all passengers were presumed dead. In reality, however, the
discovered wreckage was staged. The real plane had suffered a
mid-air break-up and crashed on an uncharted Island, with more than
70 passengers surviving the crash itself. Later, six of those
survivors made it off the Island and became known as the Oceanic
Six.
Please note to pick up a trail map at the Education Center.
Please use the trails wisely, a direct route is not the best route.
Please follow the winding trails and boardwalks for limited
bushwhacking.
The scenic Lord Sterling park offers 8 1/2 miles of Nice
hiking trails, with more then 3 miles of boardwalks. Bordering the
Great Swamp National wildlife Refuge and the Passaic river, parts
of this area is prone to flooding. While hiking it is recommended
to wear boots, as areas can be muddy.
Please protect yourself during the warmer months from
mosquitoes and ticks.
