Another view of the natural bridge, where it dives down under. You can better see the swirling water here. The raw power inherent in the water as it rushes downstream is impressive. So is the noise.

Carl says: I tried to record the noise on the digital camera, but the staticky hiss it played back didn't match the earthshaking rumble of the real thing for some reason. I'm pretty sure those are at least class 5 rapids. (What's the rating for "suicide"?)
