As dangerous as it may look,
Walking on cap rock has its pleasures.
For the most part, the marine limestone that underlies the swamp is covered by a thin layer of marl and peat, except along this trail …
Where those soils eroded away.
At times it had a vertiginous feel …
Knowing there was three miles of limestone below.
And also a cavernous effect …
Being surrounded by skyscrapers of clouds on all sides.
There’s nothing quite like a wet walk in the swamp.
