| Verbatim Directions to Locality: | Pond cypress pond, with scattered trees throughout, none of them particularly tall, but most of them with spectacular buttswells, the latter to ca 3 m above ground level. Pond presently dry save for a few small pools of stagnant water, the soil sandy in the higher spots, mucky-peaty in the lower ones. Much of the pond surface bare because of vehicular traffic, but considerable areas around the trees free of such traffic and with low herbaceous vegetation. W of Crawfordville on road taking of perpinduclar to U.S. Rt 319, thence 3.7 miles, pond on left. This is beyond Lawhon's Mill (Pelt cemetery on left) 1.4 miles. [I have visited this pond sporadically over perhaps 15 years, this being the first time I happened there when the water level was such as to expose more than a very little of the periphery of the pond.] In Apalachicola National Forest. |
