The flooded stands of Dames Slough still look decidedly Louisianan. Long stretches of the forests' stream environs remain under water as repeated downpours help to replenish the waters; the restoration of the streams was supposed to hold water in the forest, and it works really well. The geology of the forest helps too creating a landscape which soaks up water like a sponge, even the raised areas of woodland are sodden and yielding underfoot.
