^Sounds like a good place to get naked LOL!
Parts of the Edisto have been developed. In a 24 mile trip, the river can narrow to the point of having to carefully push through cypress trees, or be 50 or so yards wide. Some places have houses. One spot always has angry ducks. 1–95 and a few other roads pass over it a couple times. And there is a giant, rusty old power plant close to where I usually park downriver. I like the diversity, but prefer the desolate, natural parts.
The first time I got naked there, there was a terrible storm that came up a few hours later. It was lightning like 10–30 times a minute, with heavy blowing rain. I have been through dozens of Hurricanes, but that storm scared the shit out of me. I had to lay flat against a mud bank for a couple hours. The rain made the swamp flood,and debris, and insects were pouring over me. I had no phone, no source of light,or food. I was stuck out there for 10 hours. Barely got back to my truck by the time it was too dark to see. During the storm, I wondered if I pissed mother nature off by getting naked. But she saw me through the storm, so I still go nude sometimes. My biggest fear is having a girl scout troop come around a corner whilst I’m wading around in my birthday suit.
Many times in life, I wish I could dissappear in a place like Zoar. If I ever go to NY, I’d rather visit there than the big city.
