This place is a must see if you’re day tripping in the area. It’s about a 2 mile drive from downtown lambertville and another half a mile walk from the parking lot.

When it was a Boy Scout Camp, we needed to be aware of the copperhead snakes, is that still an issue? (I remember that they introduced Black snakes, a natural enemy of copperheads)

I live nearby and walk up the "road" as well as hike the trail that heads south. Never saw any snakes.
