This is the bottom swim hole. This is the only pool deep enough to
jump into. There are two more pools above this one that is good for
relaxing and wading. Heres someone swinging from a rope hanging across the
pool.

The pool was very dry that weekend. The water was hardly flowing at all.
It should really look like this.

This is what we call "Heart Attack Hill" because it is so steep. You hike
down this hill going to the pool, but have to climb it coming back out. Its
not too bad if you take it slow. The many roots on the ground makes it
easier to climb. Heres Matt Ramsey, the super hiker.
The happy campers of Troop 35 cruising by the fire. This is a good hike for first time hikers. It is challenging enough, but not too hard. And the pool at the end is a most rewarding treat for a job well done. But don't forget the hike out.
NOTES:
This place is getting popular and I've noticed more and more rubbish being left at the pool. So please hike out all your rubbish so that we can keep the pool as nice as possible.
