| I spent most of this weekend out in the Green Swamp. It was so wet that most of it is under water. But I did manage to hike for a couple of hours, in water up to my knees. Here are a few pictures to show you how it looks out there. Attachment: DSCF0015.JPG (Downloaded 92 times)

| This shot will show you the trail under water, and one of the resident Bananna Spider in the top middle. I almost walked into the web before I saw it. Attachment: DSCF0025.JPG (Downloaded 92 times) Last edited on Mon Jul 28th, 2008 03:58 am by SkunkApe

| Even when it looks like dry ground, it is still pretty wet out there. Attachment: DSCF0038.JPG (Downloaded 92 times)

Here is a rather large hog foot print. I am using my boot for scale.
My shoe size is 11.

| There are so many wild hogs out there, that the water management district has hired a professional trapper to thin them out. Even the regular hunting season is not taking enough of them out. Attachment: DSCF0045.JPG (Downloaded 90 times) Last edited on Mon Jul 28th, 2008 04:04 am by SkunkApe

Looks like a great way to spend a day. Or a week or two.

Nice place SA! Hope you carry some LARGE caliber HOG repellant!! LOL! I have noticed that the HOGS tend to thin out the local snake population.
Great pics and keep up the good work! TX7MM
