Near the top of the falls is a naturally formed deep hole in the rock and it is called alternately The Devils Bean Pot or The Devil's Bathtub. In climbing down into the hole, one finds names and dates carved in the rock back to the 1800's. In earlier times the area was used as sort of an amusement park with a pavillion, games and picnic areas. The only remaining evidence is some iron bars driven into the rock atop the falls where handrails had once been installed to aid in the visitors traversing of the upper falls area.
There is also a geocache- Devil's Kitchen and a letterbox neaarby.
