Comments
Comments: Finally got to jog this little gem in Chester (owned by Pinkerton Academy). Pitcher Plants, black gum trees, and other things well-marked to look at. Pretty neat swamp in the filtered early spring sunlight!!! I poked around and clocked .75 mi by the time I got back to my car. Fun to explore!!!
