Cumberland Island National Seashore


Cumberland is too rich in history and natural beauty to experience in a day …or a season.  For our first day trip the Park service folks recommended  a stroll around the Southern tip including the ruins of Dungeness, some seashore and the amazing “enchanted forest” campgrounds.

Winds were fierce in the open, but no bugs!

Over time the winds have twisted the whole forest into shapes like these and  tribes of Boy Scouts can happily disappear into campsites without a trace….
