This live program will also be presented at 7 pm.
Originally a nineteenth century iron and coal freight water-climbing waterway connecting the Delaware and Hudson Rivers, the Morris Canal ceased operation in 1924 due to railroad competition. It’s now being revived as a Greenway trail that takes the trail user on a historic adventure through the old iron mining and manufacturing industry of North Jersey.
During this trail chat, Rich Rockwell, the leading expert on the Morris Canal in Bloomfield, will take you on a virtual adventure with maps and photos. You will learn about the history of the canal and its path across the state and you will explore various hiking options you have to look forward to once the quarantine has lifted-- ranging from casual scenic walks and links to NYNJTC Trails to industrial archeological explorations.
