Photo by @ CarltonWard // A swimmer stands above an opening in the limestone at Chassahowitzka Springs, where she soaks up some afternoon sun and works up her courage to swim through a tunnel in the aquifer. There is a boat ramp and great place to camp a few hundred yards away. This spring and others feed the Chassahowitzka River as is flows to the Gulf of Mexico. #floridawild #gulfofmexico #spring #freshwater #explore @fl_wildcorridor #keepflwild
