2008-04-13 Basic Cove in Upstate SC

2008-04-13 Day trip to a basic cove forest in upstate South Carolina. Actually, this small area is just a ravine whose creek is fed by seeps. The whole area is only about 100 yards wide, and is situated directly on the creek. This is one of the few locations in SC for Trillium grandiflorum, a Trillium species found in abundance farther north.
