Horsetail Falls

Horsetail Fall, situated in Yosemite National Park in California, is a seasonal waterfall that flows in the winter and near the beginning spring. The drop occurs on the East side of El Capitan. There are a few days each February where this fall is lit up by the setting sun and reflects a intense orange.

This waterfall descends in two streams side by side, the eastern one being the better, but both moderately small. The eastern one drops 1,500 feet and the western one 1,600 feet, the uppermost fully-airborne waterfall in Yosemite that runs at a number of points every year. The waters then meet and go down another 500 feet on steep slabs, so the total tallness of these waterfalls is 2,100 feet.

Parallel Falls

Parallel falls occur when falls are side-by-side and fall similar to each other. There can be two or more falls and can be from the similar watercourse or from more than one watercourse. Twin falls are also side-by-side but do not have to be like in type. Triple and more falls live as well.

Ribbon Falls

Ribbon Falls is the uppermost free-leaping waterfall in Yosemite, and California, and North America, and one of the uppermost in the world. It plunges down the cliffs west of El Capitan, approximately opposite Bridalveil Falls, ensconced in a narrow amphitheater of its possess making that ensures it can only be seen from directly in front.

This is a distant and ephemeral falls. Its bottom is over 1500 feet above the valley floor, and it’s top more than 3000. It is most excellent seen from the Southside road just conflicting Bridalveil Falls -- there is no trail that affords a good vision. It is fed by a minute stream, and disappears soon subsequent to the last snowbanks in the valley rim forests have melted away.

Scree/Talus Falls

Water flowing over a chaotic mix of rock debris on a slope typically found at the base of a cliff or steep predispose. Scree is usually the rocks that are smaller than a softball and talus is larger than a softball. Some people do not think these to be waterfalls though if the slope is at least 30 degrees then it fits our criteria.

Shannon Falls

Shannon Falls is one of the easiest-to-reach 1000 base+ waterfalls in North America. Situated less than 45 minutes north of Vancouver, British Columbia, Shannon Creek flumes downward the mountain surface and into Howe Sound, one of the majority easy to get to fjords in North America. Usually, the falls are scheduled as being exactly 1100 feet tall, though, they have been re deliberate recently, and a more precise figure was recognized. It's somewhat hard to accept the falls as being truly 1100 feet tall when presentation them from the base, due to important foreshortening. However, when seen as of the air, or from on the waters of Howe Sound, it's clear that this figure is correct. We estimate that merely around 700 feet of the falls can be seen as of the base (as seen below), with slightly more noticeable from the parking area.

Rock Creek Falls

Rock Creek Falls used to authority a mill, and the ruins of the mill are dotted about the inferior portion of the falls. However, the falls are on confidential property and good views of the 150-foot cascade and the ruins are not obtainable, as evidenced in the photo.

Directions: From Hendersonville, drive nine miles south on US 25 and get the Green River Road exit. Twist right and drive 2.7 miles to Rock Creek Road. Turn right again and drive .8 miles to a fork in the road. Take the left fork and park. The falls are to the right.

Pieces of land segment the river (same watercourse) causing the water to fall in sections. Not to be mistaken with different watercourses forming different waterfalls side-by-side as in Parallel / Twin falls.

New York City Waterfalls

"The New York City Waterfalls" is a public art project of four man-made waterfalls increasing from New York Harbor, some as high as the figurine of Liberty. Prearranged by the nonprofit Public Art Fund and the city of New York, it is being owed as the city's biggest such project as "The Gates," the $20 million attempt by the artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude in 2005.

Slot / Keyhole Falls

Water pushes through a thin area before falling. A keyhole is a special slot as it has a rounded part at the base of the slot resembling the old fashioned keyholes. Some times the water has forced (eroded) out a division of the rock causing real whole water falls from.

Keyhole Falls is the main waterfall along the Lillooet River. The falls thrust 20 meters out of a slot canyon fixed into a thick ash flow, creating the appearance of the water flowing out of a giant old-fashioned keyhole. The falls are found about 10 km northeast of the Meager Creek FSR, a short distance off the Upper Lillooet River FSR.

Gitgit: A multi-tiered waterfall in North Bali

Gitgit is the most excellent known waterfall in Bali and also the most visited. The reasons for this are it lies on a busy road and it is quite big. Situated 11km south of Singaraja, is a symbol points to a path, that leads 800m to the waterfall. The majority people will just go to this waterfall subsequent to paying a small fee (about 4,000rp). The waterfall is concerning 40m tall and runs the best between November and March. Food and drinks are accessible.

For people who don’t mind a bit of exercise, there is a more imposing waterfall 2kms additional along the path. To access this one a donation is necessary. This second waterfall is multi-tiered and you will go by other waterfall along the way, walking along the jungle path. There is some stall and the route is safe. If you are staying in Lovina and are heavy back to Kuta via Bedugal, you might like to stop at Gitgit waterfall.
