The very peak of the ridge, where the rest of the swamp stretches out as small and insignificant. This would serve as the meeting place of any herd in relevance. There is, right near the highest point, the largest cypress tree for leagues, with a top so high that it ends up being swallowed up by the canopy before you see the top. and it were clear enough, maybe it could even be swallowed by the sky before you see the top.

The sides and top of the ride are covered in trees, evergreens like the cypress and pine, but other trees as well: trees that make flowers in the spring, blossoms that look like azaleas, maple-like trees, and strange trees with red berries. The groundcover is mostly dirt and dead weeds, with the occasional small flowering plant, iris or lily, fern, or tired old shrub. Although recent floods have not touched the ridge, many of the older trees have mosses that resemble floodmarks growing on them.
