A hint of Fall in South Carolina.
I saw one other boat. A couple in a canoe from the outfitter next to the boat ramp.
I landed at Colleton State Park. Walked up the bluff to the rental cabin and campground.
Paddle across the Edisto to the boat ramp
Landed just after 3PM just under 3 hours
As I planned this trip, I read about Lynches River County Park. So, I checked it out.
Low water, moving fast. I kept the kayak on the roof.
The Park has a nice boardwalk
I got a hotel room in Fayettevile, about 90 minutes north. $48 and change, including tax.
