Grand Falls -- Little Colorado River -- Spring Overflow

This Fall is a treasure. Few people know of it, and it rarely flows except in March and April, when run-off from winter snows in Arizona's high country is heavy. Located only about 25 miles east of Flagstaff. At 185 feet high it is taller than Niagara Falls (183 feet) though not as wide (est. 200 feet). Often called the Chocolate Falls because on most days the water is so muddy it is brown. I was lucky to find nearly clear water last week. (Not the greatest light, but what can you do?)
