2 miles on the boardwalks at Estell Manor Park in Atlantic County with the Cub Scouts this weekend! Always a nice hike through the cedar swamps.

This was part of hike 32 in the 2nd Edition, a 5.6 mile lollipop in the park that explores a lot of the ruins of the World War I munitions plant that was on what is now the park property.

And new since the book (and very exciting) - there’s now a National Park Junior Ranger Program here for Great Egg Harbor National Wild and Scenic River… all the Cubs on the hike earned it!
