Description:
A long and dark cylindrical entrance with segmented rings like a giant trachea seems to go straight into the bowels of a great beast. The reality is a lot less interesting which belies its spectacular appearance. It's a manmade drainage tunnel, but the soft sandstone bottom had been eroded away by a constant flow of water. To get there take Hwy 89 to Twin Hollows Campground. Drive about 1/4 of a mile and you'll see a small dirt parking area on the left-hand side. The trail to the tunnel also starts here.
