Marvelous. Love the color of the water at the bottom; it looks like glacial melt.

@john4jack: Thanks, Jack. You are so right - it is glacial, and there is no color like it, I think.
@Andre Muliana: Thanks, Andre.

Oh the colours in this..the blue blue water...just glorious. We swam in a river in Yellowstone park a bit like this (an allowed swimming area). It was a bit wider and not quite so rough..but it was very similar...so happy memories for me!

@Loner: Thank you, Sonja!
