South Carolina Department of Natural Resources - Words cannot do the view at Jumping Off Rock justice. Photographs, as stunning as they may be, also do not suffice. This truly is one of those extraordinary places that you have to see to believe. Jumping Off Rock is also not an easy place to get to, so the view may be all the more appreciated for the effort that it takes to get there. Photos Nov. 4, 2009.

I just took the survey and was very disapointed about SC not being able to implement the 365 day licenses. I also think you should post the dollar amount for the multi year licenses on the survey, we need to know these things.

We went along with DNR biologist Billy Dukes to one of the thirty dove banding sites to see just what happens and what they hope to learn.
