Transcript:
Alice: Where's all this water coming from? Dill: It's the annual snowmelt! Dill: In the spring, the snow and ice mantling the jungle gym's upper slopes melts and gushes down the tube slides, turning the playground below into a vast floodplain. Alice: It's so beautiful! Dill: It's one of the great spectacles of nature!
