  • As I understand it, water runs by and gets caught by something small and an eddy forms, then continues for years, hollowing out the space. Maybe. PS, how did you take this picture and also be in it?

  • I believe those holes are made by rock badgers.

  • What's a rock badger? It sounds like a sand trout ... mythical beast in the dry rios
