Forrest Wood Crowley's Ridge Nature CenterDescriptionAt Forrest L. Wood Crowley’s Ridge Nature Center in Jonesboro visitors have chance to experience and explore a unique piece of North America and its wildlife. The diverse site features trails through wetlands, forest and prairie. The exhibits showcase the natural forces that formed the 200-mile-long ridge and native wildlife. State-of-the-art displays create natural phenomenons, such as a realistic "rain storm", and a movie about the earthquake in New Madrid actually "shakes" the audience.
