The sight of water tumbling over a cliff edge, rock face, or fault line is one of the most eye-catching spectacles in the American landscape. Waterfalls are a natural wonder to behold as they reveal more of the power and force of water than the meandering rivers or streams that feed them. The highest waterfalls aren’t always the most dramatic or picturesque either. In Ricketts Glen, none of the falls are especially high or vast. Rather, it’s their settings amid woodlands or surrounding rock faces, and the shape of the cascade that make these falls more than just a study of white sprays of water.
