98

Stop 98 is among the highest-numbered waypoints on an Everglades observation route, placing visitors near the far end of the marked path where the wilderness experience reaches its fullest expression. Getting here requires commitment — whether on foot, bicycle, or guided tour — and that effort is usually rewarded accordingly. At this distance from the trailhead, the Everglades reveals itself as a system of extraordinary complexity and beauty. The combination of sky, water, vegetation, and wildlife at stops like 98 provides the kind of encounter with nature that visitors remember and return for.
