MAP IT

 

Had some time to kill in Georgetown, SC so found this nice reach to an abandoned construction dock on the gator infested Sampit River. The wind was whipping when I shoved off from the boat landing at the end of Trout Street. The paddle to the old dock was just under 4 miles one-way. It’s a huge slab of concrete separated from the water with a corrugated iron wall. Massive tires hang over the edge. I walked a couple of gutted buildings and found a rusting crane in the woods covered in vines.
