Huckleberry Pond
Delaware Native Plant Society field trip, August 23, 2008
Huckleberry Pond is in Sussex County, northeast of Milton.
We were warned about mud and bugs, but saw no mud and very few bugs.
Here are some photos from the pond and a nearby rich woods area.
This is a big area — about 1/4 mile to the other end.
