Review:

The Hidden Waters Preserve is home to several sinkholes, the most prominent of which is the Eichelberger Sink which is over 100 feet deep. If you were to visit during a dry spell you may well wonder what has happened to the waterfalls. However, after some rain the sink is transformed into a hiker’s delight. As you descend down into the sink you will be able to hear and see water gushing down into the sink from surrounding rocky funnels, in a series of completely natural “waterfalls”. At the base of the sink you will find Lake Alfred, a completely natural sink lake fed entirely by these rainy-season waterfalls.
