Congaree Swamp (S.C.) Stop 7 - Sweetgum Tree, Willow Oak Tree, And Spiders

Kaltura

At this last stop at Congaree Swamp, Rudy and Jim find another Sweetgum tree, which grows very well in this wet, muddy environment. A record size Willow Oak tree, toppled over by the wind, knocked down several other trees in the area, opening up a hole in the canopy, letting in sunlight. Some spiders have been able to make homes for themselves in the roots of this oak tree.
