Phelps Lake (Wyoming) - Jumping Rock

Jumping Rock

"Jumping Rock" is a popular rock that sits on the northern side of Phelps Lake. It is so called "Jumping Rock" for the reason that it performs as a natural diving board. It is a 25-30 foot drop into the lake, but the water is deep enough for those brave enough to jump in. The water is freezing, even in August.

Famous quotes containing the words jumping and/or rock:

    Unwind, hands,
    you angel webs,
    unwind like the coil of a jumping jack,
    cup together and let yourselves fill up with sun
    and applaud, world,
    applaud.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “O what unlucky streak
    Twisting inside me, made me break the line?
    What was the rock my gliding childhood struck,
    And what bright unreal path has led me here?”
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
