Trailhead Closed - Southern Wyanokies-Norvin Green SF
The trail head for the Mine Trail/Wyanokie Circular (yellow & red) is permanently closed by the landowner. This trail head is on Snake Den Rd, near the Weis Ecology Center parking lot. We will be posting signs and blocking access at both ends of the private property. Please plan your hikes to enter and exit the forest trails at other locations. Either using the HewittButler/Mine Trail (blue and yellow) via the Otterhole Trail (green) from the Weis Parking Lot; or use the Highlands Trail from Westbrook Rd/Townsend Rd to the new Roomy Mine Trail extension to access other trails. We will be creating links / detours very shortly, but ask your cooperation now in avoiding this trail head.

Reminder: Do Not enter caves and mines (bat habitats)
A reminder: the folks at NJ Endangered Species are requesting hikers DO NOT enter ANY mines or caves. This is to prevent the further spread of the white-nose syndrome fungus that is killing NJ bats. This will apply in NY also. The caves in Hibernia are closed, Roomy Mine is closed.
These closings are until further notice. Thanks for cooperating and caring about the bats.
