Photos: Goodale State Park
near Camden, South Carolina
The South Carolina Park
Service
provides the
following description of Goodale
State Park . . .
"This 763-acre day-use park is a popular get-away for
area residents.
The park lake, formally a mill pond that dates back to the Civil War
days, features cypress trees, numerous species of birds and a variety
of wildlife and plant life."

We've put a few photos on this page showing scenes from Goodale State
Park in South Carolina. Regrettably, we're running out of
room at this site to post more. However, we have started a second site
where you can find 67 photos from the
park.
To get to the photos at our
other site, go to:
http://photos.jmadden.org/thumbnails.php?album=24
or . . .click on South Carolina > State Parks > Goodale State Park
http://photos.jmadden.org/index.php?cat=5
You can expect to see more and more of the new photo collections appear
there because of space considerations and the speed with which we can
post the items.
These blue flowers are blooming
profusely around the park in April/May.
These delicate white blossoms
are actually very tiny - not much more than a 1/2" across.
Here's one view of the beautiful
glade you come across as you climb down from the mill pond area.
Another view of the water and surrounding forest at Goodale State Park.
Water is rushing over the rocks in the stream.
Looking further down the stream, you can see the dense underbrush and
the debris in the water.
The water is so clear at the moment, you can see to the very bottom.
Notice that it has a slight brownish shade.
We walked down the path along the stream into the forest. This picture
is from deeper in the forest. Notice the ferns.
Honeysuckle could be seen blooming all over.
Here is a water lily bud just opening. Notice another one to the left.
