The cattail marsh redux cache is located in the Conservation Management Area (CMA) of the Great Swamp Watershed Association (GSWA). This area contains critical wetlands, vernal pools, forested areas, and the Silver Brook, a feeder stream to the Passaic River. This cattail marsh is a wet depression in an open area with no canopy cover. Years ago it may have been a much deeper pond that has gradually filled in. This spot has become home to Great Blue Herons, green frogs and spring peepers.
In November 2010 the cattail marsh boardwalk was completed with the help from the Northern New Jersey Cachers, NNJC. Old Navy, TheSurfcaster, Jeeeper1, Swamplande'r, Fusilli Jerry, and Biga800. (Justin & Allan not pictured) Thanks to these folks who volunteered their time to complete this boardwalk for this beautiful park. Also pictured are GSWA members Hazelle and Steve who managed this project for GSWA. This boardwalk completes the trail system inside the GSWS.
