Our previous Mystery Photo

Last week’s mystery, “Jet lake,” showed an airplane peninsular pond on Boeing Avenue near Charleston International Airport.  Thanks to Georgia’s Rob Ponder for the photo.

Congrats to readers who identified the shot: Bill Segars of Hartsville; Charles Ford of Goose Creek; D.J. Strickland of Louisville, Ky.; Christel Newton of North Charleston; George Graf of Palmyra, Va; Chris Brooks and Kirk Zerangue, both of Mount Pleasant; Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; Craig Bennett of Charleston; and Jay Altman of Columbia.

Peel shared, “Measuring over 1,400-feet long by 550-feet wide, the pond is about 15 football fields in size. It can hold the same amount of water as 100 Olympic-size swimming pools. The land mass that juts out into the pond looks like a jet airplane and is huge … 1.5-acres in size.”

Send us a mystery:  If you have a photo that you believe will stump readers, send it along (but make sure to tell us what it is because it may stump us too!)   Send it along to  editor@charlestoncurrents.com.
