Description
Hamilton Pool is a Travis County Park located a few miles west of Austin, deep in the Texas Hill Country. According to its official website, "a unique natural area surrounds this pool, collapsed grotto and canyon, formed by thousands of years of water erosion. Lush plant communities, a variety of wildlife species and natural shelter attracted the area's first inhabitants. Cultural remains date back over 8,000 years."
I made this image on a cool and crisp late Autumn day. The bald cypresses, oaks, and sycamores were exploding with colors, and the waterfall seemed "healthy" after heavy rains two days prior. A 1/4 mile hike down a steep trail into the creek bed will take you from the trail head to this beautiful swimming hole, and you also have the option to follow the creek down to its confluence with the awesome, bald-cypress-lined Pedernales River. Thanks for looking! FAA watermark will not show on final printed artwork.
