  • The Shawnee National Forest is home to an abundance of natural beauty. That beauty can lead on to explore some of the most interesting places in Southern Illinois.
    Located near the Jackson Falls climbing, just east of Ozark, IL are some of the largest sandstone bluffs in Illinois. Passageways, caves, and shelters line these bluffs allowing one to discover what lurks outside the light.

    Nice! Have you done Dixon Springs yet? I only made my way there a few months ago. Lots of snakes though. Lots.

      Yes, Dixon Springs is a beautiful place and it's actually full of history.

      lol - coming from primarily a photography background, I see forms and shapes when aligning shots, thus in particular a lot of triangles in this video. Thanks for watching!

    Glad your ok man, that could have been a much nastier fall. I'm confused on the area though. In the intro you show East Trigg and then mention Jackson Falls area in the description. Could I perhaps get more enlightenment on this location? Great video!

      He hiked from east trigg Tower to the east towards and passed cove hollow falls to then hit Splatterstone canyon you can cross the tracks to get into Jackson falls area or continue north to Jackson hollow.

      Yep, futuristicnomad is right. The railroad tracks split the areas. There are several ways into this area, but 001T seems to be the most direct and scenic. Thanks for watching and sorry for the delay on responding!
