Hi Larry,
We have been doing a river trip that includes Lake Moultrie and the
lower Cooper River for the last 8 years now but never knew we could go
over into Bushy Park Reservoir. Next time we do that trip we will
follow your directions to check it out. Most of our previous trips
started at Columbia on the Congaree and ended up in Charleston. Last
year we started on the Wateree in Camden, took the Wateree to the
Congaree, the Congaree to Lake Marion, Lake Marion to Lake Moultrie and
then on to Charleston via the Cooper. One year we even camped on the
same bluff you camped on on the upper Cooper River

Since we have done 7 trips down the same river system we decided we
might get adventurous and try some different rivers. This year we are
going to try the Pee Dee and maybe the Savannah next year. I live in
upstate SC but grew up in Charleston where many of the other river trip
participants still live so we and going to try to end up there on most
of our trips. Maybe after we run out of rivers in SC we will try some
in GA and NC.

Thanks again for the info on the Bushy Park Reservoir. Funny that we
passed the turn to it so many times and never knew it was there. The
upper Cooper really is a very beautiful river.

Thanks,
Billy
