Default Back garden looking like a mini swamp.

This past winter has been tough on our lawn. We had a lot of wet snow
and freezing rain which has made my back garden look like a pigs
paradise. Because half of the snow is yet to melt we still have some
standing water.

Is there anything I can do now to try and speed up the recovery of my
lawn?

50/75% of the grass is brown or dead. The rest is bald mud patches.

Any hints or tips would be great.

Thanks.

Wait til it dries and stay off it. Talk to your AG folks. The soil and
geology dictates what you can do. Is the ground frozen underneath and
the reason the water is not peculating?
