Default Bristol "swamp/wetland" (Sugar Hollow) photos

Hi folks... today I took my mother and grandmother to Sugar Hollow Park today and we strolled through the wetlands/marsh areas - a place I love. Its sad though because of the recent lack of rains, its getting so dry and the water levels were so much lower than they were 2 weeks ago.

Enjoy!
















and these were as we went on up into the woodlands. Mostly thickets of White and Loblolly pines. There was some cross-country events today, so it was not as quiet there today is it looked...

Sugar Hollow Park is on the VA side near Exit 7, almost directly across Lee Hwy. from Target. It's really a great park, pretty big too at 400 acres. I walk there at least once a week.

No problem... glad to do it. I just wish it was not so dry. It needs rain badly. Go there, you will enjoy.

I love Sugar Hollow and take lots of pictures every time I'm up there too. You have some really nice shots. I can't believe how low the water level is! I hope ya'll get lots of rain soon to get your water levels back up.

Love Sugar Hollow and Steele Creek and Rooster and Weir Dam ... man, Bristol has great parks.


Got a question about the dam at Sugar Hollow. Was TVA planning a lake back there or something? Why was the dam built but never used?
