Congaree National Park: An Old-Growth Bottomland Hardwood Wonder

After I left Helen, Georgia on Friday morning, I headed over to Congaree National Park in South Carolina. I am on the hunt to get all 63 of the national parks. This one makes 37. Congaree National Park in South Carolina protects the largest intact tract of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest in the U.S., featuring some of the tallest trees in the eastern United States and a high canopy. The park offers hiking, canoeing, kayaking, and camping, with activities centered around the Congaree River
