Puddle-Jumper Pond

In the midst of the forest, you come upon a mountain creek, glistening in the sunlight, with shadows from the pine trees dancing on the surface. The water is clear, pure and VERY VERY cold! One ancient pine leans a sturdy, hearty limb out over the middle of the pond. The water is dark in the middle, indicating a deep, cold center. Around the edge of the pond, one can see well rounded rocks through the water. Crayfish and crabs dart along the bottom, searching for food.
