Swim

Also known as "Big Falls". This description from a fan:" The falls are normally warm on a sunny day due to the creek being exposed to the sun most of it's winding path. The hole is at the foot of the falls and is approx 50' wide and 25' long by 10' deep. You can jump off the base of the falls on the eastern end fairly safely. I would tread in before attempting to jump in to insure depth."Courtesy of swimmingholes.org
