Little Popo Agie Campground

Another beautiful campground: Popo Agie Campground within Sinks Canyon State Park. The prominent feature in the park is “The Sinks” and “The Rise”. Here a river flows through the canyon in the park and then disappears underground (the “sink”). It reappears further down the canyon (the “rise”). The distance above ground is measured as one quarter of a mile and the rushing water should only take a few minutes to cover this distance underground. However, dye tests have shown that the water takes over two hours to make the journey from the “sink” to the “rise”. Craziness.
