As you walk the Rim Trail, learn to identify some of the key flora that stabilizes the area around the sink. These are of great value in not only preserving the integrity of this geographic wonder, but also for holding in place other items of interest.
Fun fact: "Mushroom" derives from the French word "mousse", which may mean "moss". How odd!
Since this is a State Park, we want everyone to be able to enjoy the opportunity to seek, to find, and to learn, so this is a great way to introduce others to this fun place and fun hobby.
