Hardwoods on Burgess Mountain in Oconee National Forest

Hardwoods on Burgess Mountain in Oconee National Forest 1

This photo is from January near Burgess Mountain in the Oconee National Forest. I love how there is a pine stand right along the road with lots of overgrowth, but with a little walking it transforms into an open Oak Hickory forest. It’s lovely at all times of year, but is especially open in the winter.

This one ends up feeding into the Ogeechee River before heading into the Atlantic. Fort McAllister State Park is very underrated. It’s a lovely park with a great campground and lovely cabins.
