We parked across the street, at the Morris County Library, crossed the street and first followed the Patriot's Path (also blazed in blue) to yellow, which we took west then south back to Patriot's Path. Here we turned right and headed northwest, doing the green trail which skirts a meadow. Here we saw two tree swallows getting amorous. We continued west, through a deer exclosure gate on the PP, along the Whippany River, with Route 287 right across, until we reached a parking lot. It's here that we turned back and walked back to the arboretum grounds. We continued southeast on the PP, then on yellow, then red shortly after. Red skirts another lovely meadow with trees and bushes nicely labeled. We took red east all the way to the orange trail, which we looped. Back on red, we turned right on purple, taking that northwest to blue (but first visited the grounds around the mansion up on the hill to the right). At blue we made a left, then a quick right on yellow. Once we were back on blue we made a right on the walk labeled "Flowering Cherries" and then took the walkway back to our car. We had planned to continue on the PP west of the library, past the community gardens to the Whippany River in the North Tract, but ran out of time.
