The centerpiece of this famous Wyoming park is the Popo Agie river. As it winds its way through the mountains, it ends up at a spot that has become famous for its odd features.

“The Sinks” is the spot where the river changes course slighlty and heads underground.

Instead of continuing over the landscape, the river dips below the rock into a cavern where it continues to flow before re-emerging at The Rise.
