Apshawa Preserve
The Apshawa Preserve is a 576-acre nature preserve in the highlands of northern New Jersey, United States. Located off Northwood Drive in West Milford, the preserve is managed by the New Jersey Conservation Foundation and by Passaic County.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Apshawa Preserve )〕 The preserve is mostly wooded with oak and maple.
The Apshawa is a brook, a tributary of the Pequannock River; it flows through the preserve and is dammed to form the 40-acre Butler Reservoir within the preserve. The reservoir once served to provide water to Butler. Apshawa Preserve includes a network of hiking trails and a 43-acre reservoir.
Since 2010 part of the preserve is protected by a gated deer fence to protect native plants that otherwise would be decimated by a high density deer population.〔 Onsite parking is provided in a gravel parking lot that is located off Northwood Drive, where hikers will find a kiosk with trail maps as well as trailheads. Apshawa Preserve cannot yet be accessed via public transportation.
The preserve is open year round from dawn to dusk for recreation such as hiking (about 7 miles of trails), fishing, and birdwatching. In September 2014 a 22-year-old student was mauled by a 300-pound black bear in the preserve and died. He was the first known person in New Jersey history to be killed by a black bear.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Hiker snapped pictures of bear before fatal attack in West Milford )〕
