#16 WOODS BAY STATE PARK

Thank god the powers at be save these little slices of heaven. A wonderful State Park with beach hiking trails.

What a great boardwalk over some nice swamp waters!

Just north of Columbia lies Lake Murray and Dreher Island State Park

I have lived here for two years now and thanks to G, I made it to Paris Mountain, just 20 minutes from my house!

This was my 11th SC State Park visit on my way to becoming an Ultimate Outsider. The ranger here was outstanding with her knowledge of the area.

This is my 10th SC State Park towards becoming the Ultimate Outsider by visiting all 47 parks. This was our first time visiting Lake Jocassee. Such a beautiful lake indeed.

This is my 9th SC State park towards my goal of getting all 47! What a beautiful park this is. I hiked along both lakes and look forward to coming back and hiking the 8 miles to the

My 8th on my way to all 47. We hiked the mile along the river and saw Mary Musgrove's monument.

The Rose Hill Plantation was amazing. We were so lucky to get a private tour of the house. The park ranger saw us and offered our foursome a private tour.

Croft State Park is my 6th park to become an Ultimate Outsider by visiting all 47 South Carolina State Parks!

I WILL become an Ultimate Outsider by visiting ALL 47 State Parks. This is my 5th visit?

In my pursuit to become an Ultimate Outsider, today we drove from Greenville up to Oconee State Park.

This is a special park indeed. The overlook is spectacular and not to be missed. I hiked the rather short but very groomed Frank Coggins Trail.

This was my second SC State Park visit in pursuit of the coveted Ultimate Outsider Award.

Newbie Challenge excepted! My goal is to visit all 47 State Parks in my new home state of South Carolina and to garner the coveted title, ULTIMATE OUTSIDER!
