Description

Thor's Well is a circular bowl carved out of the basalt shoreline of the central Oregon Coast at Cape Perpetua Scenic Area near Yachats, seen here at low tide. Water rises, bursts out and falls from inside the feature, drawing intense curiosity from tourists. After a harrowing rescue mission to recover a drowning victim Monday, Coast Guard swimmer Tyler Gantt is warning visitors about the landmark's dangers.

Unsure what they might face on the call that a man had fallen into Thor’s Well at the base of Cape Perpetua, the four Coast Guard crewmen discussed possible rescue scenarios as they flew from North Bend.
