The marsh is pictured here from about 200 feet above.
Just north of the Beaver pond and about 60 feet below the
height of the dams. It is approximately an acre in size and acts to
retain and filter the overflow from the pond.

Visible in this and the following photos is the invasive Phragmites reed in the marsh.
Phragmites crowds out the native flora and fauna but also acts as an efficient water filter.
