Leave Nothing But Footprints – #1 Battle Creek Cypress Swamp
I will be participating in Pepper’s Heaven’s Sunshine new “One Step at a Time” weekly challenge, to share a photo(s) of one of my trails I’ve hiked. I plan to end each post with a bonus wildlife captured along that trail.
So come along and hike down this trail with me, one step at a time!
Battle Creek Cypress Swamp, Prince Frederick, Maryland
Boardwalk Trail, 0.4 miles swamp loop





Northern Cardinal (male)
Take a hike, short or long, one step at a time.
Mother Nature promises to reward you.
And please remember~~
Leave nothing but footprints.
Kill nothing but time.

Ah, I will enjoy this. Beautiful place. Thank you!
It looks like a lovely place to walk. The Northern Cardinal is beautiful. Thanks for taking us along!
Looks like a great trail. I appreciate having a boardwalk to get across the areas that tend to get super muddy. Love how the cardinal stands out against the background. Thanks for linking to the challenge, Donna.
Delightful trail
It looks like a lovely spot, I like the sentiment as well!
A good message! Lovely place, Donna!
That is an absolute pleasure
Gwen.
I love boardwalks, esp. through bogs… a chance to see what would be otherwise inaccessible.
