Geo 1095: January 29, Day 759: Stygian Pool

Continuing the walk to the Visitor's Center at Oregon Caves National Monument, here is a better view of the pool and patio behind the lodge. The cave entrance is directly above the waterfall, and is the source of that water. The stream flowing through the cave has been dubbed The River Styx, hence the post title. Astute readers may notice there's no outlet to this pool. So where does the water go? That's a topic for future posts, but it'll be a while; tomorrow we're going spelunking!
