Comments

The ramp to get to the viewing area is divided into two sections. First you go up 24'8" leading to a resting space of 57" and then another ramped area 24' long leading to the platform. The platform offers great views of march and muck lands and the pond it is named for. There is a bench that is 16.5" high.
