Interesting Natural Feature
"Pot holes" has a diffenrent meanig in the USA as opposed to the UK. In the UK "pot hole" means a hole in the road surface. These "potholes" are large holes in the river bed below the dam. made over thousands of year by rocks eddying round making holes in the suface bigger and bigger. Interesting.

Interesting to see
This is a short walk from either end of the Bridge of Flowers. It only takes a brief viewing along a railing on the east side of the Deerfield River. Walking 20-30 feet south of the same railing, you can view the Salmon Falls. By the railing are concrete spots to hang out on, nice trees, shrubs, a bench to have picnic on. If you’re just driving through, there are a few spots for parking.
