Waterfall …
you are the bounty
of hidden heavens.
Takakkaw Falls
Whenever I see a waterfall I always wonder where all that water is coming from?
It often comes from far away.
But in the mountains, us earthbound folk know that somewhere above – out of sight –
there is likely a glacier.

In the case of Takakkaw Falls this is so.

Like and iceberg, the waterfall is only the tip.

What a mammoth spectacle! Great shots, JC.
Thanks Cindy. I stole the top photos from the net. They are great though.
The Google Map ones, I took screen shots. They didn’t come out very well, but still tell the story. Google Maps really is an awesome thing.
