“What are you doing in my swamp???” Join the ORC and channel your inner Shrek as we travel to the swampy floodplains of Congaree National Park in South Carolina! On this trip, we will paddle down the Cedar Creek Canoe trail amongst a canopy of cypress trees and hopefully spot some river creatures, such as toads, deer, and maybe even an otter or alligator. After a night of camping underneath the stars, we will explore the floodplains by foot as we hike 2 miles along the Boardwalk Trail.

PLEASE NOTE:
Your trip leaders will cover suggested packing items in a pre-trip email and during your pre-trip meeting. Transportation, fees, group gear (tents, stoves, water jugs, etc.), and all food except when we are traveling in the van will be provided. You will be responsible for providing personal clothing, toiletries, bowl/eating utensil, personal snacks, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad. If you do not have your own sleeping bag, sleeping pad, or backpack, you may rent these items from the ORC.
