Swimming in rivers is part of the Vermont experience and the best place to be on a hot summer day—or even a warm fall one as was the case here—is under water at a swimming hole. This well-hidden spot, bounded by bedrock outcroppings, is the perfect place to dip into the reflections on the still water.
Still Learning To See 
Idyllic!
John,
I remember swimming there, many, many years ago. I recall diving off a large rock and wondering if I would come up.
Yes, so many gorgeous spots like this in Vermont. Not what I grew up with on Lake Lansing! The water in this swimming hole is easily 15-20′ deep and clear as a bell much of the time. One can easily imagine swimming underwater there forever!
