The Great Rock of Sah-ka-na-ga
The mighty Table Rock lit by the evening's last light as seen from Caesars Head State Park in South Carolina.
This enormous granitoid gneiss is the beacon of South Carolina's Upstate and rests at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Inhabited by the Cherokee in the days of yore, these great people referred to this area as Sah-ka-na-ga, meaning the Great Blue Hills of God.
According to Cherokee legend, the Great Spirit, Wakan Tanka, would use the top of this mountain as a table from which to eat his meals, hence its current title.
I feel blessed to live within a short driving distance of this beautiful area, which offers miles upon miles of hiking trails and other outdoor activities.
Have you ever visited Table Rock State Park in South Carolina? If not, I highly recommend the trip!
Thank you for stopping by to look, and many blessings for a prosperous week ahead!
