GA 1. Alapaha River Swamp. Acreage: 100. 



Location: Irwin County; SW of Irwinville; Waycross Quadrangle (1:250,000); 

 reached via first bridge over river after junction of Highway 1 25 and 32. 



Description: Beautiful, dense stand of stunted trees, dominated by cypress and 

 including Ogeechee lime and water ash. No trees are over 50 ft high. Many have 

 the tops broken out and tremendous, swollen bases, suggesting they are quite 

 old. The Alapaha River at this point is in many shallow, braided channels, inun- 

 dating most of the flood plain.
