The northbound
motorists on I-95 enters South Carolina in the area known as the Coastal
Plain. This is mostly low-level marshland and swamps, most of which are
populated with moss-hung cypress trees. Yes, this is picture postcard
country! Among these swamps are small, treeless, wild grass prairies
called savannas. As you cruise northward on I-95 you are slowly gaining elevation until, at Santee, you are now in the fringes of Carolina's famous Sand Hills. The Sand Hills were part of an ancient beach indicating that the Atlantic Coastal Plain was once covered by the ocean. Many of the more popular winter resorts are in this region. |
