(erielack) OT - Egbert's Lake property protected as Open Space (NJ)

Today's NEIGHBOR NEWS (a weekly) for Denville and Rockaway reports that
the 77-acre Egbert's Lake property in the northern part of Rockaway
Township was purchased by the Trust for Public Land to protect it as open
space.  It was once (1940's-1950's) a camping resort and people lived in
the cabins into the 1970's, perhaps later.

RAIL CONTENT:  "An easement along an abandoned rail bed along the west
side of the lake will be transferred to the Morris County Park Commission
as an extension of their West Morris Greenway trail system, connecting the
property to Wildcat Ridge Wildlife Management Area."

This is part of the Wharton & Northern Railway (CNJ).
