"SLATER'S LAKE," LOOKING NORTH
New Jersey’s deepest natural lake has been a major scenic and recreational attraction for at least 150 years. It has been successively known as Piggots Pond, Andover Long Pond, Strubles Pond, Slaters Lake, New Wawayanda Lake, and Lake Aeroflex.
LAKE AEROFLEX, LOOKING SOUTH
Lake Aeroflex covers 117 acres northwest of Limecrest Road. Brown and rainbow trout, largemouth bass, pickerel, perch, and landlocked salmon of record size are caught in its waters. The YMCA Summer Boys’ Camp New Wawayanda occupied the lakeshores from 1919 to 1954.
