Lower Pond

The lower pond is spanned by a zipline wire that allows zipping people to plunge into the water from a height of perhaps six feet.  The most common zipline competition involves judging dives by the size of the splashes they make; smaller splashes earn higher scores.  The pond has a long, floating dock and tiny island supporting one boulder.  The pond was built in the late 80’s on the central stream of the property in a spring-sodden sump.
