Waterfall Safety and Common Sense

The “Happiness Pool” was so named by our Angel Falls tour guide. Since I can’t figure out if it has a more formal name, I stuck with his suggestion. In any case, we visited this waterfall on our way back from Angel Falls. It was not long after relaunching the boat into the Carrao River just upstream from the Mayupa Rapids.

This waterfall gave us an opportunity to get wet under a waterfall. A couple of fellow mates from our tour group actually went partway up the waterfall before walking through the curtain of water and then disappeared behind it. It was a pretty cool photo opportunity, but there was not a whole lot else to this roughly 5-10m waterfall. Julie and I decided to pass on going under the falls.
