Cheoah Pothole


Description: A large pothole exists below the right edge and downstream side of the large rock that divides the river in the first ledge below Bear Creek Falls. Its opening is keyhole shaped and approximately 2' wide at its top, pinches in a bit, then widens at its base to 4'. It varies in depth from 7' at its top to 4' at its lower end. The shadowed area in the upper right corner of the photo is looking upstream at the river-right side of the large rock. Something to be aware of.
