Morgan Dillon is a detective at the ni county sheriff's department. He had never been down inside devil's hole before working this case. Thereis a steep, rocky path that leads to the water between pale orange and gray rock walls. Once the path gets too steep, you hit a metal staircase to continue making your way down. When you get near the water, you reach narrow platforms which allow researche access the pool.
There is a cave in the middle of the Mojave Desert called Devil's Hole. It's home to a small iridescent blue fish, called the Devil's Hole pupfish - and you can't find them anywhere else in the world. There are fences, cameras, and motion sensors for security. In 2016, three men rammed the fences and broke in.
