Pumpkin Spring - The Grand Canyon's Arsenic Pool

Below the rim of the Grand Canyon runs the beautiful Colorado River. Many take trips down its length but among the majestic scenery is something which they do not quite expect - a huge, enormous gourd-like squash. Jutting out from the canyon wall and perched above the river, this highly unusual formation is known as Pumpkin Spring.
