Abandoned camp - Milltail Creek - Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge
The photo above was taken during my trip to North Carolina in October. This building on the water's edge was the only man-made structure we saw on Milltail Creek that day. It appears to be accessible only by water, and was probably a hunt club or fish camp. We did not attempt to go inside. The structure is partially collapsed and did not look too safe, and there were rusty nails sticking out all over. We kept our distance, not wanting to risk a puncture in the inflatable boat. There was a lot of swamp between us and home.

ReplyDeleteYou have been discovered. Evidently you stepped on a twig. I feel a need to follow your trail to this Alligator Place....happy trails.
Woodduck--I noticed a spike in my traffic last night and found the link on the "Friends . . ." facebook page. Very nice. I need to find some more twigs to step on.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to a cold weather trip to North Carolina this month and will be back in the swamp for a day or two.
Thanks for visiting.
Great shot Edd! It makes me think about The Swamp Thing and The Blair Witch Project.
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it back!

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
