Southern bayous

 
I hadn't expected things to get wetter this quickly. Through Dames Slough the woodland adjacent to Black Water has the look of a bayous too it; making our walk quite exciting. The nearby raised forestry track and bridge are in risk of being overwhelmed; the bridge has scant space remaining beneath it and the track is already ankle deep in water for 40m or so towards Burly Old and higher ground. When the forest's like this it reminds me of what a forbidding landscape it must've been to traverse prior to fair roads and bridges.
