NJ - Rockaway: Split Rock Furnace

NJ - Rockaway: Split Rock Furnace
Made by wallyg
The Split Rock Furnace, located below the concrete dam at Splitrock Reservoir, was built in 1862 by Andrew B. Cobb. The 32-foot high charocal-fired stone furnace was built to smelt magnetite ore into the iron needed for the Civil War. The furnace operated for only about ten years, and was abandoned in the 1870s. It was the last of its kind build in Morris County, representing the end of the era of charcoal furnaces. Splitrock Reservoir is 625 acres of wilderness consisting of large lakes interconnected with islands on the border of Rockaway Township and Kinnelon. Splitrock was opened to the public in November, 2003. New Jersey State Register (1974) National Register #74001182 (1974)

My father and I don't get to go out on photowalks very often, but we took every opportunity we had while I was home just after the new year. It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to do it again.

Sitting near the dam on this dreary grey morning. There were actually two of them. One was molting.

The old iron furnace at Split Rock. I left the HDR very HDR-like to give it that Weird NJ vibe
