Twin Lakes Campground, Lake Hartwell, Pendleton, South Carolina

Well we finally left the 1000 Trails campground and moved just a little way East to Twin Lakes Recreation Area in Pendleton , South Carolina just a few miles from Clemson University.  This is a very nice Army Corps Of Engineers campground on Lake Hartwell  which is a about 50 miles long and has 962 miles of coastline. 

I didn't do a map of the trip since it was so short but in its place is a map of our travels since we left NH on August 9th including where we expect to be for the next couple weeks.  We are at #23 this week and will be at #24 next week which is another 1000 Trails campground (we are going to try them one more time).  


Our site - we are on a little point surrounded on three sides by water

We hiked the shore for a few miles today and found quite a variety of terrain from white sand beaches to a large rock quarry to long stretches of red clay - I took this pic because it reminded me of a Mars landscape
