As the smaller original swimming hole became more popular, the owner realized the need for a larger secondary pool. This is that secondary pool, man made, and a meter deep throughout. It is fed by the same artesian well that created the smaller original.

The water of the swimming hole was crystal clear with a sandy bottom. Small fish could be seen swimming around in the pool.

Deck chairs lined the walkway around the smaller of the two pools. This was the original pool (barely ten meters across) which served the community well until after the revolution ended and tourism returned.

The border between the two pools was a spill-way. Here a man sat on a log slice laid over the spill-way, his back to the smaller original pool. He appeared to be gazing into the water of the newer, larger pool.

On the hill just off the junction of the two pools was a permanent structure that served as both a changing room and a restroom. Note the two small stools alongside the pool.

A snack bar was on a hill overlooking the larger of the two pools. In addition to snacks, cooked meals were also available.

Dogs were allowed to hang out around the pool. Here was a small dog who waited under the shade of two chairs.

A young couple relaxed poolside. Here, they were on the far side of the pool directly opposite the restaurant.

Here was a view looking across the large pool at the area where one would walk into the park.

Here we look back over the larger pool at the entrance. To the left, Kaela Tompkins of British Columbia shopped for souvenirs. She eventually settled for a selection of postcards.

A stump covered with mushrooms was alongside the trail next to the larger pool. This trail was opposite the entrance, and lead out through farmland.
