Upper Delta Private Charter

Service Description

These are the trips where we hike in through the swamp to the 700 year old giant cypress and visit the Indian mounds on Mound Island. We cover about 30 miles by boat on these trips and spend about half the trip off the boat in the woods. In November, two orchids are blooming, Bartram's tree orchid, a tiny tree dwelling species, and the lady's tress, a spiraling swamp orchid with a delicious aroma. Oyster mushrooms and honey mushrooms are plentiful on the walks, along with a lot of flowers. October and November are typically the driest months in the swamp, so best time to be walking around without getting your feet wet. We'll leave the dock at 10 AM, back at 4 p.m. Bring a lunch and drinks. You can bring a total of six people, but two people is fine too.
