Harley Means

Lake Jackson has gone *mostly* dry. Why and how often does it do this, and what happens to the fish? We have answers.

We visit the mysterious Aucilla Sinks with geologist Harley Means. Here, we can get a glimpse into the karst geology that provides Florida’s abundant water.

At Fred George Basin Greenway, geologist Harley Means takes us to two sinkholes that may one day become one of the Red Hills’ sinkhole lakes.

We see waterfalls and come face to face with the geologic forces that created Lake Miccosukee. Geologist Harley Means talks Red Hills sinkhole lakes.

We explore ice age Florida through artifacts and fossils excavated on the Wacissa River, and learn about the archeological methods that tell us their story.

The upper Apalachicola River has geology like no other in Florida. Geologist Harley Means reads rocks and finds fossils in Means Creek and on Alum Bluff.

The perception of artifact collectors varies: are they citizen scientists or looters? Amateur archeologists are looking to make Florida law more inclusive.

Archeologists scuba dive the Wacissa River to uncover artifacts that could be 12,000 years old or older. Also, we ponder the “First Floridians.”
