Jackson Springs



What a beautiful spot hidden away in the heart of Macon. I loved getting to see this charming little park.

The lab was, however, not focused on the beauty of the park but, rather, the geology found therein. We discussed the composition of various types of rocks and searched the area for a variety of samples. The bridge holds different types of rock, including:


Granite

and


Gneiss

We also traveled a tree-covered path to the river and took further samples, examining them as they were gathered.
