SUMMARY:Carolina Sandhills NWR\, Cheraw SP and Horseshoe Mountain
DESCRIPTION:The first walk for the CBS Midlands Chapter will be on April 3. We will visit Cheraw State Park and Horseshoe Mountain. Due to a recent controlled burn and lack of nectar\, we will NOT explore Carolina Sandhills NWR; we will only meet there in the parking lot at 10:00 (which\, due to the expected cool temperature\, is later than the original time of 9:30 ). The main entrance is on US Highway 1\, about 4 miles northeast of McBee\, SC.  The address is 23734 U.S. Highway 1\, McBee\, SC 29101. We will caravan to Cheraw SP and then to Horseshoe Mountain. \nPlease note that masks and social distancing are mandated on all federal lands (Sandhills) and masks are only required in areas where people congregate at Cheraw SP. If you want to explore the Carolina Sandhills NWR\, a youth turkey hunt is taking place on this date and our permit limits us to either side of Wildlife Drive from Hwy 1 to RT 9. Please bring an orange hat or vest to wear in the NWR other than the parking lot. \nPlease note that the area at Cheraw SP is not a trail and we will be walking on uneven ground covered with pine needles and some vegetation. Also\, at Horseshoe Mountain there is a walk with some steps to get up to the top. The high temperature is only supposed to be 59 on Saturday\, but we did see butterflies while scouting when it was only 55 degrees. It is supposed to be sunny. \nAs before we will practice social distancing as much as possible during the walk. Be sure to bring your mask since the area will be more crowded on a holiday weekend. Bathrooms are available at Horseshoe Mountain. \nThe target species are Henry’s Elfin\, Brown Elfin\, Frosted Elfin and Hessel’s Hairstreak. Please bring your binoculars\, camera\, field guides\, lunch\, snacks and water. We will end around 3:00. Marty and Dave Kastner will lead the walk. Please sign up on the CBS website or contact Marty and Dave if you plan to attend. kastners@aol.com

SUMMARY:Francis Marion National Forest
DESCRIPTION:Our first field trip of the year will be on Saturday and Sunday\, April 17 and 18\, to the Francis Marion National Forest in South Carolina. Proposed times for both days will be from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. \nOn Saturday\, we will meet on I’on Swamp Road which is directly off Highway 17 N. The GPS coordinates are 32.972848\, -79.673653. Target species are Henry’s Elfin and other spring butterflies. We will walk along I’on Swamp Road and I’on Swamp Trail. If there is interest for a Sunday walk\, we will meet at the intersection of Highway 41 and Hoover Road in Huger\, South Carolina. \nThe pace will be easy and the terrain not difficult although there are roots along the I’on Swamp Trail. No restrooms are on site. Bring binoculars\, water\, field guides\, lunch and insect repellant. \nAlison Smith and Tom Austin will lead.
