Typical Bailey quick cache with a nice view of a cool bridge on the south side of GCU. Bench and a boat ramp along with close parking within a few yards of GZ. Saw a great spot to hide cache, but I probably would have fell in. :) Info researched claims great Large Mouth Bass fishing, noted lots of trails to walk on and plenty of other places to sit and enjoy the lake. Looks like no parking 9pm to 7am. Typical Bailey small container with a log, bring your own pen.

A man-made lake in the center of Lakewood Township, New Jersey, Lake Carasaljo and its sister, Lake Manetta, were created by the damming a northern tributary of the Metedeconk River in 1883, when Lakewood was the site of the Bergen Iron Works.

Lake Carasaljo is named after the three daughters of the owner of the Bergen Iron Works, Joseph Woolston Brick, for whom Brick Township, New Jersey is named. His daughters were named Caroline(nicknamed 'Carrie'), Sarah ('Sally') and Josephine ('Jo'). Brick's wife Manetta lent her name to its sister lake.

Local legend is that the three girls drowned in the lake, which was subsequently named after them. Historical documents show the three girls were alive when the lake was named.
