Tour 9a
The Wanaque Reservoir and The Kanouse Mountain

Junction with State 23-Riverdale-Ringwood-Greenwood Lake junction with State 23; unnumbered roads.
Junction with State 23 to junction with State 23, 27 miles.
The road is paralleled by the Erie R.R. between Pompton Lakes and Hewitt.
Filling stations and lunchrooms at Pompton Lakes and Greenwood Lake.
Macadamized roads, most of them in good condition.

The route, forming a horseshoe around Wanaque Reservoir and the west side of Kanouse Mountain, provides an excursion into New Jersey's unwritten history. It penetrates a wild, rugged country, revealing traces of currents forgotten in the life of the State: of the Jackson Whites, and of the old, abandoned mines at Ringwood that helped to decide the fate of the American Revolution.
The route branches north from State 23 (see Tour 9), 0 miles., at a traffic circle 1.8 miles north of Pompton Plains.
