The Wanaque Reservoir and The Kanouse Mountain – West Milford

WEST MILFORD, 19.8 miles. (700 alt., 350 pop.), is a tiny village on the east shore of PINE CLIFF LAKE. An old agricultural center once known as New Milford, it has developed as a small summer resort. Two churches set the tone of the community. One, the FULL GOSPEL CHURCH L), at the northern end of town, is housed in a low green bungalow very much like the homes along the lake front. The other is the WEST MILFORD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH (L), farther south, a handsome white came structure with stone steps and a broad double door. It was built in 1807, rebuilt 1825. A sign outside announces: "This Church is open all day, every day, for Rest, Private worship or shelter from the Storm." The white frame BOROUGH HALL (R), built late in the nineteenth century on early American lines, was formerly a Methodist church.

Bear R. at 20.1 miles.
