At Devil’s Bathtub in Old Man’s Cave Gorge, a tightly cemented area of sandstone constricts the stream and forces the water to carve straight down, and over time the swirling action has hollowed a bathtub-shaped cavity in the rock. Legend says the swirling drain goes all the way down to Hades itself, but in reality the tub is several feet deep and then emerges downstream under the bridge on toward Old Man’s Cave. Though it may look inviting, the tub is very dangerous, climbing out is virtually impossible, and swimming or wading in the stream is prohibited because of the danger and the potential harm to wildlife.
