You will do the entire state of NJ and some NY gems such as the Lemon Squeezer and the Agony Grind. Words of caution: The entire east coast is the ticks capital of the world. do your recherche and protect yourself accordingly. Prevention is the key in avoiding Lyme disease and other ticks born diseases.
