The Monarch of the Swamp is a 600-year-old bald cypress.
This is one of the larger trees along the trail.
This was the 1st of 3 found along the trail – Keep your eyes peeled!
Everytime we go here, this tree brings back childhood memories.
Freshwater marshes adorn the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve.
This was the biggest gator we seen this time around. Hopefully sometime in spring they'll be more.
Crossing the waterway is made easier by this nice bridge.
Soak up the scenery before the turn to the Marsh Overlook Trail.
