Update
05/05/2022
The New York-New Jersey Trail Conference (NYNJTC) has installed a short detour to avoid flooding caused by beaver activity in Vernie Swamp in New Jersey, just south of Unionville, New York. This detour is at approximately NOBO mile 1,346.3 and uses two short, temporary trails connecting to Mt. Salem Road. Total distance of the detour is around 1/3 of a mile.
Hikers should utilize the detour until flood waters recede. We will update this notice when we have more information.
