Many years ago, the Pearl River flowed here. The river changed course and a shallow area was created by the deposition of sediments as the river retreated. During periodic low water, seedlings of water-tolerant cypress and tupelo trees gained a foothold. The trees you see today are a result.
Water tupelo and bald cypress trees can live in deep water for long periods. After taking root in the summer when the swamp is dry, the seedlings can stay alive in water deep enough to kill other plants.
The trail, including the bridged pathway seen above, at this location leads through an abandoned river channel. As the channel fills with silt and vegetation, black willow, sycamore, red maple, and other trees will gradually replace the bald cypress and water tupelo. Also if you look closely you may see juvenile alligators sunning themselves on floating logs and other vegetation.
This location is also a trailhead for the Yockanookany Section of the Natchez Trace National Scenic Trail. This trailhead is located directly across the paved Parkway from the Cypress Swamp site. Hikers may hike south 14.1 miles to the West Florida Boundary, north 8.9 miles to the Yockanookany Trailhead, or any distance they chose on this out and back trail.

"Every waterfall is a moment of peace in the chaos of life"
A hike in the woods especially along a flowing river to a wonderful waterfall brings that peaceful moment.
When I saw that I was getting the fence in the frame, I didn't shift to avoid it because I knew that Fence Friday was coming up.

"Ah yes the Menomonee River, I do remember seeing it," I say from time to time.

Nearly century-old granite arch pedestrian bridge over Burnt Fork Creek.
South Peachtree Creek Trail, in...
Mason Mill Park

***************
▶ In the 1930s, the Works Progress Administration — a U.S. government Depression-era national employment agency— built several recreational amenities at the Decatur Water Works for use as a public park. These included granite benches, cooking grills, and tables, a stacked-stone water fountain, and a pedestrian bridge over Burnt Fork Creek. The granite bridge is now part of the PATH Foundation's recreational South Peachtree Creek Trail that runs through Mason Mill Park. The entire Decatur Waterworks area has been added to the National Register of Historic Places, due to its former industrial significance as a waterworks, its political importance as a Works Progress Administration (WPA) project, and its use as a public park.
