Large Underwater Springs in New Mexico (Submerged Quicksand)

This is one of the spring tributaries of the Rio Penasco in New Mexico. This is mostly showing the underwater springs bubbling up through sand and other debris along the bottom of this headwater. This phenomena when seen at ground level is called quicksand. I was able to drop down almost to my neck at one point as though it was nothing more substantial than water. A larger version of the video and will be posted showing the entirety of the dive.
