More Than Just Flying Discs

Although we are in Mississippi we are still close to the Louisiana border.  There is a disc golf course in New Orleans, about an hour from us, that Mark wanted to play.  This course is new and is expected to become the number one course in Louisiana.

It is a beautiful course built in a Cypress Swamp.


You DON’T want to throw out of bounds.  Last week this area got 7 inches of rain in 12 hours!  It was pretty wet in areas.

Great fairways and lots of cool trees make it an interesting course.


But - there is a lot more here than just flying discs.

There are dragonflies.



Interesting fungi.


The levy.

Woolly Bears.


Flowers.


Swamps.



More swamps.


It’s a very nice disc golf course but is also much more than that!

    1. Fun things to look at even IF you're playing disc golf as well. Especially in the rough!

    1. We bet it was. I've soaked too many shirts on the southern swing of our trip. Time to head north!!
