NJ 7. Timber Beaver Swamp. Acreage: 300. 



Location: Cape May County; Woodbine Quadrangle; 1 mile SE of South 

 Dennis; reached via Garden State Parkway, Rt. 55; accessible by old logging 

 roads. 



Description: A relatively large area, typical of the forest and swamp lands of 

 south Jersey. A small pond at the northern end introduces a different environ- 

 ment than that of most of the tract. The greatest asset for natural area designa- 

 tion lies in preserving this typical area before more alterations by man occur. 

 Islands within the swamp contain untouched stands of beech, holly, and other 

 typical Cape May vegetation. 



Encroachments: Rt. 55 Freeway. Soil Conservation Service plans for recharge 

 impoundments for Cape May County. 



Ownership: State of New Jersey and private.

 sey, P.O. Box 1889, Trenton, N.J. 08625.
