Ho Hum

Did someone say, "razor sharp instincts"? It's an observation tower in the Shark Valley of Everglades National Park. Shark Valley lies in the heart of the "river of grass" that stretches 100 miles from Lake Okeechobee to the Gulf of Mexico. Wildlife abounds here in a freshwater ecosystem of sawgrass marsh and tree islands. A fifteen mile tram road extends into the marsh, offering one of the best opportunities to view alligators and the endangered snail kite in Everglades National Park. The observation tower is located halfway around the tram road.
