Blue Pool is a phantasmal spring of sapphire water surrounded by the cliffs of a dry waterfall, where the McKenzie River seeps from underground lava fields into a pool of iridescent clarity.
The river only flows over the falls a few times a year, the rest if the time the water emerges from the rocks underwater in the basin of waterfall pool.
This is a unique site. While it is rare to see a large waterfall ledge completely dry, the color and composition of the pool is also unique.
