chub and mud lake riverine marsh is very much what it sounds like. a higher stretch of land between the crawfish river and the marsh near the parking area allows for a small wood with a close, winding path. many anemones and mushrooms, again cranes all around (but here unseen).

part of a 7,000-acre wetland in the crawfish and beaver dam river floodplain, there was certainly much more to explore here, but i had to be on my way to the southern shore of chub lake. (great name, by the way.)
