20' hole

This is a great get away when the temp. gets up there in mid summer.Crystal clear spring water that feeds the Black River.You can jump from these rocks,as it is what it's called a hole 20' deep.If your lucky enough to find this spot,walk in first to be sure it's clear for your own safety.
