After a fitful night of sleep I got up early and headed to our rendevous point – Mars Old Field Landing on the Edisto River. Our plan was to rendezvous at the put-in at 8:00 and paddle down to Givhan’s Ferry, about a 7 mile trip. We had originally planned to paddle from Colleton State … Read More “Blackwater on the Edisto” »

I had been paddling on Lake Cunningham twice in as many weeks, so I decided it was time to give our little backyard lake another try.

This being said, I have now put together my paddling resume’ in Google Earth KMZ format.

Local, Paddling

It’s an interesting turn of circumstances. When we first got our kayaks we would run up to Lake Cunningham a couple of times a week to get some exercise and to relax. Then we moved into our current house, which is on a lake. Now we hardly ever paddle, even with ready access to water. … Read More “Paddling Lake Cunningham” »
