Awesome site for finding trails in your area.

Waterfalls of TN, NC, VA
A nice Google map my friend Steven made. Steven listed each waterfall named in this format: [Name] [Height in Feet]‘ ([County of Location]). You can get directions to each fall, and many are listed with a picture. Niice.

Caves within VA and TN
This one is formatted similarly to the waterfalls map above, but lists caves.

ACME Mapper
This is a great online map software that seems to use the same technology as Google Maps, only it has Topo maps as a viewing option. Great for finding waterfalls, caves, etc.

A blog a guy I used to work with, Tim McLeod, started. Mostly about the web (especially Flash and Flex), software, and technology.
