Lower Cataract Falls shown in this image drops about 30' (9.1 meters), making it, along with Upper Cataract Falls with a 45' drop (13.7 meters), among the most impressive waterfalls in Indiana.
This time of year, the light at Cataract Falls is really not that great in the early morning. However, it was pretty good when viewing the bridge from this angle.

... at the age of 12 Drift has developed some cataract ... it doesn't mean he can't see anymore, it's just more blur ... fortunately dogs have more senses they can use ... he just uses his nose a bit better than he used to do :) ... so hedgehogs beware ! ...

One of the most photographed pieces of architecture in The Columbia River Gorge - Benson Bridge was crafted by Italian stone masons, allows visitors to cross the falls between it's lower and upper cataracts. In 1914, Simon Benson, a prominent businessman and owner of the falls at that time, erected the bridge. Before then, a log bridge was in its place.....
Wishing everyone a wonderful "Waterfall" weekend.........!

Cataract Gorge Reserve, known locally as the Gorge, is a unique natural formation within a two-minute drive of central Launceston - a rare natural phenomenon in any city.
Not one single fall, upper Cataract falls was fun to visit because there was an almost endless variety of ways to photograph the falling water.
Last of my photos from my visit to Cataract Falls. I look forward to going back in other seasons for some different perspectives of this wonderful park!
The ‘Wild Water Trail’ is a gentle but very scenic riverside route a little further up the Stubai Valley. You begin with a short bus trip, then walk to Tschangelair Alm for refreshments (this traditional Hütte serves fresh dairy produce and is famous for Graukäse, its own Tyrolean cheese). From here, you shadow a rushing glacial stream via the impressive Ruetz Cataract (an impressive waterfall) to reach the even more impressive Grawa cascade before catching the bus back.
I wish we had made it back to Niagara this past winter, but it just didn't work out. Ice on the falls is just so amazing to see.
Here's a little throwback Tuesday to 2014.
