Spot the Harlequin ducks (Godafoss)

I got up close to the west side of the falls for a good panorama and plenty of noise too. I was surprised to see that a good flow of water escapes from just above the top of the falls and flows off to the west. Here on that day (although no guarantees are offered) […]

Swimming Hole (White River Falls)

My cousins and I lived on State Hwy. 216, just a mile or so east of the park entrance in 1978 and 1979. We frequently went to the falls during the hot summer months for refreshing swims. I also fished the White River downstream from the falls, landing some nice trout. I haven’t been back […]

Seen A Lot Of Them

I became very interested in waterfalls at the tender age of 11 when I crossed Victoria Falls for the first of 39 times. Have even walked along the rim during the dry before it became a fashionable tourist attraction. Like you I have assembled a huge database (2250) of falls around the world and have […]

What causes a waterfall to change shape or form on the way down?

At a Holiday Inn in Tucson they have a waterfall in the lobby that pours over a flat ledge, about ten or twelve feet wide) and the water falls in a flat smooth sheet. Half way to the bottom, it suddenly starts fluttering back and forth (towards the front of the falls, and also to […]

Units – use and translation

I value the nature a lot and I appreciate the page like yours. I saw few of the waterfalls from your list – they are beautiful without the doubt. My only concern is about the units you are using. Since the readers have various understanding of units – both, in US and rest of the […]

Iguazu Falls – Fee to Cross from Argentina to Brazil

It should be noted that there is a $100 fee to cross from Argentina to Brazil. If you hire a taxi and guide in Puerto Iguacu he might be able to get you over without this payment. Both sides are different and are worth seeing. 0 Comments*Enter your name*2 characters minimum.Do not change these fields […]

Hiking to the falls

Breathtaking. Indescribable. If you can handle an 8 mile hike over mud, rocks, and steep terrain, this is a must-do while in Kauai. The pool below feels really cold, but jump in. It is incredibly invigorating. This was the best thing I did in my two weeks in both Kauai and Oahu. I loved it. […]

Correction on Tokopah Falls

The article about Tokopah Falls is incorrect. Tokopah is not on the Middle Fork of the Kaweah River as stated in the article. Instead, Tokopah Falls is on the Marble Fork of the Kaweah River. The article needs to be corrected. 1 Comment*Enter your name*2 characters minimum.Do not change these fields following 1 + 6 […]

My mystery waterfall! (Australia)

Abundance of waterfalls in Tennessee

Tennessee is filled with beautiful waterfalls. None are as large as Niagara Falls, though Fall Creek Falls is one of the largest east of the Mississippi. What makes Tennessee’s waterfalls so beautiful is the surrounding scenery. The Great Smoky Mountains and the Cumberland Plateau are some of the most lush regions in the United States. […]

Northwest Waterfall Survey (Curly Creek Falls)

Curly Creek Falls appears to have been partially channeled into a sink between the bridge on FR 90 and the falls. It flows well during the spring and early melt season, but by mid summer it dries out completely now – as you suspected this is likely the result of flooding 6-7 years back because […]

Haifoss

WOW!!!! The drive there was bumpy and very long, but WOW!!! This is all you can say when you walk down the small trail to the falls and hear the sheer power of the water cascading over the edge. Two falls within a few meters of each other with the larger one falling straight on […]

Lavena Coast and the Blue Lagoon

Bula Johnny, So you walked back to Lavena from the Falls? I don’t want to duplicate. How far down the coast did you get? Did you seen Tino in Lavena village? This is one of my old haunts – love the area and I may actually live at the other end of the coast where […]

Sea Kayaking Alohaland

I lived in Alohaland 20 years and did many documentaries and started the sea kayaking industry there. Every time I went from Hilo to Waipio I would stop at the Rainbow Falls complex and have a great time. Thanks for the memories! Now I have to go through thousands of images and build my Hawai’i […]
