A quirky roadside landmark — a large sombrero-shaped observation tower beside Hwy 301. Shoot its distinctive silhouette against big Carolina skies; ideal for roadside-architecture and travel-story images. Easily reached by car with roadside parking; no formal entry needed. Best light at golden hour and blue hour for strong silhouettes and warm tones. Weekdays are quieter; watch traffic on the highway shoulder. Check local drone rules before flying.
