When you think of Mississippi, you
likely think of the more than one million
acres (four million hectares) of moss-draped
oaks, timberland, and pines. This vegetation
is part of the state parks, where you
can wander through lush cypress swamps
and amidst wild orchids and flowering
cypress trees – they are even
more beautiful in real life than those
photos...

hikers.
