Jasper Park in Vera Cruz. Lenape Indians used jasper from mines/pits here for tools. We could see the pits; there were signs warning people not to remove any minerals from the park.
Upper 60s and sunny blue skies.

Burkhart Preserve on the ridge above Vera Cruz. Trails somewhat overgrown in places but still passable (except for the top of the white trail near the magnetite pits where stiltgrass hides the jumbled rocks you need to cross). A few cobwebs (Glen walked ahead of me so he got the brunt) but not nearly as many as when I was here last time (late July).
