Hello Hipockets :-) Haven't seen you post here in a while. Yes the builder did choose that name. I talked to them by phone and they confirmed this. I would say definitely that pool is safe from winter run off. Given its location it would be the pool least affected by stream flooding. The pool is high up from the creek bed and protected by a wall of granite on its upstream side. Any runoff flowing from the marshy area won't amount to enough to cause it any damage either. In heavy prolonged rains it will get some mud in the bottom coming from its source flow out of the marsh but that will be easy to clean out. The dam wall of that pool is very strong too.
