Bog Walk
A recent addition to the Big Bog State Recreation Area is an artificial bog walk which allows visitors to explore one mile (1.6 km) into the "islands" of spruce within the bog, as well as the open wetlands. The board walk was designed to allow up to 37% of natural sunlight to fall through, allowing delicate bog plants to continue to grow under the walkway.

They lisped in accents mild,
But when I asked them to explain
They grew a little wild.”

No time to rejoice for those who walk among noise and deny the voice”
