23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Path running along side a mud flat in Caumsett State Park.

This picture shows part of a path on the northern edge of the marsh. On the left is just one of the many mud flats. How much water is in them depends upon the degree of high tide at that time. The path is used by white tail deer, who frequent the salt marsh area. On the other side of the trees is the beach path leading to the boardwalk, which can be seen in the background.
