Visits
- 2013-02-05: After the Niners blew it in the Superbowl, we were ready to do some hiking, so we hired a car to take us out to a sinkhole that was advertised on some of the boards around town. The hike was pretty hot, but the beach at this park was very scenic and also deserted. After swimming for a bit, we walked into a giant sinkhole where someone had built a temple.
