A wrap head Warner Woman from Kent Village in the Rio Cobre Gorge used to stand at Flat Bridge and preach to motorists. We interviewed her about the mysteries of the river & one of the things she said is, there's a deep pool beside a huge rock at the Bog Walk entrance to Flat Bridge. The top of the rock is only visible in drought times. She said that when the river is high, the spirts get hungry for souls, swim up from the bottom of the pool & pull cars in. Vendors say the pool is the deepest part of the gorge & no one has ever run off the bridge there & survived. Except for my cousin, when the rock stopped her car from going under.
