So where is this at? After living here for 33 years and coming to Falls Creek all my life, I've never seen that hole!

It is on Courson Road in east Washington Township which is off of Harvey's Run Road which comes off of the Old Grade Road near Kelley's Place. The Welsh boys and others use to dive off the highwall on the left into the water, unable to touch bottom. I heard someone from Brockway once did this dive and pulled up out of the dive too soon and started to bleed internally. One of three swimming holes in that area left over from strip mining during the 40's and 50's. The hole above this across the road was loaded with sulfur which was cleaned by flowing over rocks before it hit the fathoms.
