From the shoreline you can still see the falls.

If you think it's missing, or it's not in good shape, please post an NM. We watch our email for all logs. An NM (needs maintenance) log helps us, and future visitors.

Please tuck it back in as far as it will go and conceal it well so it's out of sight from the casual visitor.
