- The Upper Ashepoo River above Highway 17. –Description from photographer, David Soliday.
- Description
- A digital aerial photograph of remnant rice fields along the upper Ashepoo River above Ace Basin Parkway. The highway can be seen in the bottom left corner, separated from the river by flat fields as well as denser forests. Just above the road, the confluence of Ashepoo River and Horseshoe Creek can be seen, with the Ashepoo flowing down through the center of the image and Horseshoe Creek flowing from the lower left edge. Remnant rice fields, marked by their brown color and vestigial canals, run adjacent to both rivers. A small cluster of houses with accompanying riverside docks are visible along the Ashepoo, just above the confluence. Denser, taller, greener vegetation occupy much of the rest of the image, continuing until they appear to meet the horizon.
