A large barn is in a cleared field to the south. Upon returning to the vehicle, there is a good spot to turn around and also to stop for lunch 0.2 mile further east on Timber Slough Road. Timber Slough Road ends at a beautiful sandbar on the Neches River approximately 5 miles beyond the turnaround. It's a pleasant lunch stop if you have the time. However Timber Slough Road is much rougher beyond the turnaround and is usually impassible due to mud and ruts when wet.
Sloughs are slow moving water drainage.
Though filled with water much of the year they do no collect the highly acidic tea or the layers of undecayed oranic matter found in baygalls. Sloughs wash out with every flood, and contain very little vegetative growth in the channel itself other than bald cypress and tupelo gum trees, Both trees have swollen bases, but cypress is fluted at the base. Tupelo trees have gray bark, while the trunks of the bald cypress have a reddish cast. Next stop Pitcher Plant Savannah 21.5 miles. Turn left at the traffic triangle at 0.8 miles.
