Corbett: Marsh and Flatwoods

J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area North, Indiantown, Palm Beach County


marsh and flatwoods
This is what much of Corbett looks like, a seemingly endly mosaic of marshes, meadows, swamps and flatwoods. Something like 85 percent of Corbett's 60,000 acres are inundated a good portion of the year. What you can't see in this photo is the canal that would be in the immediate foreground of this scene, taken at one of the campgrounds. If there is one major difference between Corbett Hungryland and Corbett North, it would be the presence of canals and open water in the north end of wildlife management area. More on that in a bit.
