Does falling over a waterfall raise or lower the temperature of the water?
I’m wondering if creating n artificial waterfall in a pond using a solar-powered pump would have an effect on the temperature of the pond water. On the one hand, I can imagine that the exposure of the individual water droplets to the sunlight might heat them up more than if would if they remained under […]
Thanks for the inspiration!
My wife and I absolutely love this site. We have spent hours reading your itineraries, especially your trips here downunder. We live in Sydney, with our 2 adult children. Our interest in waterfalls began 12 years ago, when we were fortunate enough to have a family holiday to the UK, Norway and Sweden, with our […]
Adamsons Falls and Creekton Falls
I saw your writeup on Adamsons Falls from a while back, and being quite partial to an adventure myself I decided to go check it out. The track in is still rough, although it didn’t seem too hard to follow for most of it. There had been a lot of rain leading up to the […]
2016 Rains bring Sailors Falls Alive
I came out to fish the many small dams and reservoirs around the region and thus left my heavy camera gear at home. I stopped off at Sailors Falls on the way back to Melbourne and was delighted to see them in full flow. I say ‘them’ because there are actually two falls next to […]
Wapama Falls
I have seen your top 10 list and it is hard to debate the choices. That being said, I would take Wapama Falls over a number of the Yosemite Falls including Bridalveil Falls I would put it near the top of the list. So what does Yosemite Falls (and others) have that Wapama doesn’t have. […]
Tugela Falls, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa
It is generally accepted as the world’s second-tallest waterfall (though, as per point below, there is an argument that it is actually the tallest waterfall in the world, rather than Venezuela’s Angel Falls). The combined total drop of its five distinct free-leaping falls is 948 m (3,110 ft). At the right time of year, they […]

About how to get to the Sequoias (from Grouse Falls)
The stand of Sequoia trees you referred to is not far away indeed. When returning to the paved road (Mesquito Ridge Rd) just turn left. It will take you toward French Meadow Lake and the park with the Sequoias will be on your right about 15 minutes or so up the road. I believe it’s […]

Canyons and waterfalls (Eas a’ Chual Aluinn)
Great report but the photograph accompanied by “This was some interesting rock formation near where I suspect the trailhead for the hard hike to Eas a’ Chual Aluinn was” is about a quarter of a mile north of the start of the walk in to Eas a’ Chual Aluinn. We always comment on this feature […]

Figured I would pass along this information since you didn’t know the name! 0 Comments*Enter your name*2 […]
Lucifer Falls from south overlook Fall 2012
Lucifer is possibly my favorite falls. Hiked around falls with my sister (ages 57 and 75). Low-traffic weekday. Beautiful fall day. Down north trail from mill, across bridge and up cliff-face trail (a must – don’t miss catwalk with dedication plaque on way up). A lot of climbing both down and up. Fully-constructed trails, but […]

The Stoners (Fish Canyon Falls)
Hey Hikers, Most of the Stoners from Cerritos, CA. used to hike up there back in the late ’70s & early ’80s to party. This was before the Factory came along & messed up the beginning of the Canyon. Back then we used to call it Marijuana Falls because there were stories that it used […]

Below, I have listed my original story hiking to White Oak Canyon Falls. I was able to capture the upper and lower falls. All photos were taken by me. Enjoy the read! The views were breath-taking, the air was crisp and clean, the sounds of the birds chirping and the wind blowing was calming and […]

Northern Arkansas, Buffalo River Area Waterfalls
As a prior resident of Arkansas, I’ve had the opportunity to visit quite a few waterfalls from Tim Ernst’s Arkansas Waterfalls book. This is definitely an area worth visiting, especially the beautiful blue water of the Buffalo River, which was a very unexpected beauty. I’ve attached a few images of some other waterfalls in this […]
