Snye Marsh

St. Lawrence River

Quebec, Canada

Sheltered wetland creek off main channel of river, very narrow and shallow, surrounded by tall grasses and little to no woody shrubs.

Barely any water movement and a VERY soft bottom (Be careful here if getting into the water - I sank to mid-thigh in mud at some points).
