Thanks!

Actually, they are wonderful for swimming. The water is about 70F, much cooler 
than the air most of the year. The main 
pools are quite deep. It was fun to see how close I could get to the falls. The 
power is such that one can't actually 
get up to them.

The smaller, stair step pools are shallow, fun to laze around in, easy to walk 
across, which is how I got the dramatic 
close-ups of the falls. That huge tufa formation fell a few years later, 
leaving those falls less dramatic.
