The gradual cascading waterfalls and a sheltering forest canopy produce a peaceful sound and setting at this unique spot. The Water Slide, however, should not be taken lightly. Chilly pools of four to six feet offer plenty of cooling off. A ray of sun can be caught while relaxing on the rocks of the north bank. Explore the river upstream but be careful not to slip on the abundant algae that has given this spot its infamous name.
