The impressive rock features of Bourke’s Luck Potholes marks the start of the extraordinarily scenic Blyde River Canyon. The giant potholes have been carved over centuries by pebbles swirling around in pools where the Treur River plunges into the Blyde River. Bourke’s Luck had nothing to do with the potholes but rather a lucky strike in this gold-rich area. This picture below was one in the series I took while out in SA and travelling around Graskop earlier in the year. No doubt I’ll be uploading more of them as I finish post-processing those, plus the others in between.
