Behind Devil's Churn
ExactMade at the back of Devil's Churn, where an easy but somewhat sketchy scramble reaches a place to sit near the lava-tube entrance. Wait long enough and the water may strike the tunnel just right, producing an otherworldly, almost demonic howl. To me, it sounds like suction made as the water rushes back out; that explanation is a field impression, not a confirmed account of the acoustics.
