I visited this waterfall twice in a week, both visits after heavy rains in the area. The first visit came as I was heading back to Little Rock after a grueling weekend working on our summer house in Northwest Arkansas in an effort to get that albatross sold. (Anyone want a great house convenient to I-540 and the north Fayetteville shopping/dining district? Click here and check it out.) The rains hadn’t done anything for the falls. Barely a trickle. I stopped off five days later on a return trip to the money pit. (Really, it’s a great house. I just installed new ceiling fans and light fixtures and the whole interior has a new coat of paint in a neutral color. Click here and check it out.) The waterfall is located off Highway 215 near Cass. Parking is at the High Bank canoe access on the Mulberry River. The Mulberry was blown out of its banks and I hoped that indicated that the side streams were running high, too. The falls had more water than before but it was less than raging.

I’d been to this waterfall before and found it hard to photograph when the leaves were out. It’s 70 feet tall and if you move back far enough to get the whole drop in the photo, the leafy trees block the top of the falls. Oh well, I did the best I could.
