At the head this tributary canyon of the Escalante River, is a small pond underneath a large alcove.  Several holes have been eroded through a horizontal layer in the alcove, forming a very unique series of natural bridges through which water flows during floods.  On sunny days the light shines into the canyon and through these holes, bouncing off the water of the pond and casting strange reflections on the sandstone ceiling of the alcove.  My friends and I spent hours there tossing rocks into the pond to create different reflection patterns.  Such fun!  Photo © copyright by Jack Brauer.
