Governor Murphy and NJ DEP Commissioner LaTourette must hear why you support the Wharton Visitor Use Map.  This map creates opportunities for visitors to use, experience, and enjoy Wharton State Forest while protecting the area's natural beauty and historic sites.  It also gives the NJ Forest Fire Service passable roads to stop fires.

Forest fire trucks HAVE gotten stuck on roads destroyed by illegal vehicle use.

New Jersey has spent over $1 million to repair damage done by illegal vehicle use.

People need to know where they can drive safely.

A map means your tax dollars will be used to improve our parks instead of wasting money on damages done every year by illegal activity. Our law enforcement asked for a map so they can do their job, protect people, and Wharton State Forest.
