an absolutely stunning boardwalk over the swamplands leading to an open view of the swamp. lesson learned: keep your dog on leash, even if you are the ONLY person in the whole reserve. i came on a rainy day and my dog knew it was water under us. but, by the time it reached the end of the boardwalk, she forgot and thought the open swamp, covered in green, was her field of dreams. scary. my arm was barely able to scoop her up by looping a finger under her collar.
other notes: i ran into the park ranger on my way in and he was very friendly and helpful. other reviews tell you to wear bug spray. i will go a step further and say to put it on before you even go there! they weren't a problem on the boardwalk but where you park, you will be eaten up in seconds. i originally planned to sleep here for the night, but after the mosquitos getting me, we RAN back into the vehicle and took off. itch itch itch.
