Adventures in Francis Marion Forest.

Winnie and I have been hiking different trails through Francis Marion for the past few weeks, but the one we hiked today takes the top spot. It's called the Sewee Shell Ring trail and it takes you through forest and marsh, out to the intercoastal. Once you get to the riverways, you follow a boardwalk that brings you to a 4000 year old Native American settlement remnant called a shell ring. There's debate about what it actually is - but it seems like it was a dumping ground for shells. The next trail I want to do brings you to a Civil War earthen fort that sits hidden on the Santee.
