点评:This is a review to bring you caution. I have not been to this waterfall/ pond, but instead just lost a friend who did. He is from Puerto Rico and had gone to this waterfall this week, his friend jumped in and made it across just fine (there's a cliff people like to go off of) and he followed. Although my friend was an adult who could barely swim he was sucked under. "Ataud" translates to "coffin" and the locals know how many people die here. It is a deep pond and there is a strong current, but it is not across, it's DOWN. Due to the deep volcanic structure of these mountains this particular pond, which is about 25ft deep, has an on and off DOWNWARD pull which turns on and off. You cannot see this from the surface of the water and it is not necessarily affected by rainfall (there had been no substantial rain in the days leading up to my friends death). There are signs on the hike down with all the names of people that have died. People still go, and plenty of people survive, but I'm shocked at how none of the review sites have any mention of this danger. I'm hoping this will help people be cautious and potentially save a life. My friend was Edgardo Jose Torres Estremera and he died January 17, 2025. He was a fabulous ballet & salsa dancer, friend, teacher, and person.
翻译:这是一篇提醒您注意的评论。我没有去过这个瀑布/池塘,但刚刚失去了一个去过的朋友。他来自波多黎各,本周去了这个瀑布,他的朋友跳了进去,顺利地穿过了瀑布(那里有一个悬崖,人们喜欢从那里跳下去),他跟着去了。虽然我的朋友是一个几乎不会游泳的成年人,但他被吸了下去。“Ataud”翻译为“棺材”,当地人知道这里死了多少人。这是一个很深的池塘,水流很急,但不是横着的,而是向下的。由于这些山脉的深火山结构,这个大约 25 英尺深的特殊池塘有一个时断时续的向下拉力,它会时断时续。你无法从水面看到这一点,而且它不一定受降雨的影响(在我朋友去世前的几天里没有下过大雨)。在徒步下山的路上有标志,上面写着所有死去的人的名字。人们仍然会去,而且很多人都活了下来,但我很震惊,为什么所有评论网站都没有提到这种危险。我希望这能帮助人们谨慎行事,并有可能挽救生命。我的朋友是埃德加多·何塞·托雷斯·埃斯特雷梅拉,他于 2025 年 1 月 17 日去世。他是一位出色的芭蕾舞和萨尔萨舞舞者、朋友、老师和人。
