Biology and Allied Health students at Virgin Falls in Virgin Falls Pocket Wilderness.

The natural area is named for Virgin Falls, which is formed by an underground stream that emerges from a cave, then drops over a 110-foot high cliff before disappearing into another cave at the bottom of the sink. The area is noted for its unique geological features and several other waterfalls including Big Laurel, Sheep Cave Falls, and Big Branch Falls.

Biology and Allied Health students at Big Laural Falls.  March 2025.

Big Laurel Falls is actually a huge sandstone rock house or rock shelter. The water from the falls sinks at a couple of different places near the rear wall of the rock shelter. This same water eventually turns up in Sheep Cave and later Virgin Falls Pit. This presents an enticing puzzle for cavers and speleologists: where does the water go?

In the early 1970s, Bowater Pulp and Paper Corporation (later Bowater Southern Division) began setting aside tracts of land within its timberlands for preservation in their natural state. 

These areas were designated as "pocket wilderness" and were managed with no logging or development other than hiking trails and, in some cases, primitive backcountry campsites.   

Foster Falls is a stunning 60-foot waterfall that cascades into a deep pool below. The area is adorned with mountain laurel, azaleas, and hemlocks that thrive above the falls, along the sandstone overlook, and in the gorge below, enhancing its natural beauty. An easy hike leads to the top of the falls, where a trail descends into the gorge. This trail crosses a suspension bridge over the creek, providing access to the base of the falls for a delightful view and experience.

The Greeter Falls loop in Savage Gulf is a must-do hike in early spring, specifically in February and March. The waterfall shown in the photo is what I refer to as Lower Broadtree Falls. So far, I haven't been able to find its official name on any maps. This photo was taken by Dr. David Nelsen and Dr. Ben Thornton during a hike with biology students in February 2025.

Laurel-Snow is a 2,259-acre natural area located in Rhea County. The natural area occurs on the Walden Ridge of the Cumberland Plateau and contains a section of gorge that is deeply dissected by Morgan, Henderson, Laurel, and Richland Creeks. The site is named after two scenic waterfalls, Laurel Falls (80 feet) and Snow Falls (35 feet), and features two prominent overlooks, Buzzard Point and the Bryan Overlook.

Adventures of Field Ecology at Captain Bill's Blue Hole.  Captain Bill Blue Hole is located in the Central Andros Bluehole National Park. The spectacular waterhole is 440 in circumference and 100 feet deep.

This area is the highest point on North Andros, situated along the northeast coast at the tip of the island. It provides a spectacular view of both the Northeast and Northwest Providence channels, as well as the Tongue of the Ocean. Here, the deep blue water seamlessly transitions into the light turquoise of the lagoon, which is separated from the ocean by the Andros Great Barrier Reef.

This location is named after the famous buccaneer and pirate, Sir Henry Morgan. He utilized this elevated vantage point to strategize the capture of French and Spanish galleons that were loaded with treasures from the New World, bound for Europe. It is believed that he hid the spoils from his plunders in the caves located in this area.

Adventures with Field Ecology in the Bahamas, 2017.  

Field Ecology - 2017.   Uncle Charlie's Blue Hole, also called Little Frenchman Blue Hole, is an inland blue hole 300 yards off Queen's Highway in North Andros. It is about 40 feet in diameter and approximately 120 feet deep. This blue hole was explored in the early 1960's by the world-famous Jacques Cousteau.  Here, Field Ecology students take a break from the ocean and enjoy some fresh water.  It's a challenging class, but someone has to take it.

Snorkeling with Field Ecology in off of Andros, Bahamas. This video depicts a "normal" day of a student in Field Ecology with Dr. Ben Thornton.

Dr. Ben Thornton took his students in Field Ecology to Forfar Field Station, on Andros in the Bahamas, for many seasons.  They studied island and marine ecology there and took in the local culture and traditions.  

Great Stone Door trail offers amazing views from multiple exposed bluffs along with the namesake feature, a 10ft wide 100ft deep crack in the rock along the gorge rim. Belinda Thornton.

A short loop leading to a beautiful 25-foot waterfall behind the Stone Door Ranger Station. The trail begins to the right of the Stone Door Ranger Station. 

Boardtree Branch empties into Firescald Creek downstream of the falls, and the combined stream then flows into Big Creek.  

I filmed this in 2017 and have just now put the video together. Savage Gulf State Natural Area is a true sanctuary, rich with natural wonders. Once you hike a few miles from the trailheads, you'll discover a sense of solitude. I (Dr. Ben Thornton, Southern Arboretum Director) prefer to visit when it's cold—the colder, the better—because no one else will be on the trails. This video features Broad Tree Falls, which is part of a loop trail that also includes Greeter Falls. In a previous video, I shared footage of a lesser-known waterfall located just below Broad Tree Falls, which has no designated trail leading to it. Filming Broad Tree Falls was quite challenging due to the numerous trees stretching into the gap created by the falls, all in search of sunlight. On the day I filmed, it had snowed, leaving no tracks in the snow except for my own. I wish I had someone walk across the suspension bridge while I was filming, as it would have added to the scene. Please enjoy the solitude. Dim the lights, turn up the music, and allow yourself to be immersed in the experience.

Ben Maxson went out on a "trunk" for this photo.  Forgot the flag.  This was taken during our hike along the coastal parameter trail around Cahuita National Park.  Some found themselves out of breath because of the elevation.  

2019 Field Ecology class at Rio Celeste, Costa Rica.

I’ll admit right from the start that you won’t find a photo of a Southern Biology flag here. This picture was taken at the field station where I brought my students for the Field Ecology course in 2019. I woke up well before dawn, anticipating an approaching storm, and set up several GoPro cameras for time-lapse photography in the upper intertidal zone. Then, I went back to bed.

The next morning, during breakfast, I suddenly remembered my cameras and rushed out of the dining hall to find them submerged. I quickly returned to my cabin, rinsed them off with fresh water, dried them, and removed the memory cards. As soon as I caught a glimpse of the images, I started hooting and hollering. Dr. Trock, the co-sponsor, said he could hear me from the dining hall!

The Ecology class has occasionally camped at Traders Hill, GA, before heading to Cumberland Island.  It's a beautiful setting surrounded by ancient life oaks but the facilities are poor.  

According to WikipediA:

In 1793, Trader's Hill was the site of several murders by Creek Indians.^[1]

Fort Alert was constructed at Trader's Hill in 1812. After the War of 1812 ended, the fort was unmanned, but became active again from 1817 to 1819 during a time of heightened alarm mostly due to Creeks, but also due to the takeover of Fernandina by various rebel factions.

In 1854, Charlton County was created out of Camden County. Trader's Hill was selected as the first county seat.^[2] During the Civil War, Trader's Hill became a refugee site for local people, including residents of St. Marys, seeking to get away from the coast.

Sadie loves the wintry scene, but she can’t wait until that snow run off fills the lake to full again and she finds herself jumping from the cliffs into its chilly clear waters with a “I survived Biology 101 & 102” sticker plastered and already peeling from her water bottle, waiting in the kayak below.
