Sixteen intrepid hikers braved the Annual Bradwell Bay Swamp Stomp on a beautiful day. Our trekkers had a positive attitude, a good sense of humor and a great time despite the cold, thigh deep waters. We were fortunate to have warm air temperatures plus the water levels had dropped over the last week so we did not have to splash through the upland pines.
To view and download the pictures that I took, please go to: http://gallery.me.com/klwimmer/100033 . You can also upload your pictures to this gallery if you would like to share yours as well. There is even a video taken by yours truly while taking a face first dive after finding a hole.
Joel “Whitesnake” Arthur has put some video and photographs of our Swamp Stomp on the web for your viewing pleasure. Thanks Joel for sharing this with us.

If you have trouble with the video locking up, try clicking on the option at the bottom of the video window that says “480p” and change it to “360p”. This will play the video at a lower quality so your internet can keep up. Eventually, Joel will add edited versions of the videos.
Barbara Bowen has posted some nice pictures of the Bradwell Bay Swamp Stomp:
