#waterfalls — Public Fediverse posts

Any great mountain adventures should start with a waterfall along the trail. The more waterfalls, the better the adventure! The beauty seen, the cool
breeze felt, rewards the soul hiker beginning to end. 

My friend and I set out on the Van Trump trail, named after Philemon Beecher Van Trump; best  known as the first person with a documented ascent of Mt Rainier along with Hazard Stevens back in 1870. The creek, trail and glacier are all named after P.B. V.T., even the falls below Christine are named after his daughter. Discussing plans for this trip we renamed the route VT trail as just hearing the word trump is a negative reminder of a different heartless man. Though the two people are completely unrelated. As a national park supporter & guide, I have witnessed how much the budget cuts have deeply impacted the park negatively. Still a worthy trail to pursue for the mountains beauty felt through out.

There are 3 named waterfalls in this approach, Christine Falls, Bloucher Falls and Comet Falls. Comet Falls certainly is the biggest and one of the grandest falls Ive seen within the Mt Rainier National Park boundary. There are hundreds of trails I have yet to do but feel this trail is one of the most scenic approaches up the mountain Ive found so far...

A 4WD tour through the rugged interior of #Tahiti in French #Polynesia with its #rainforests is a wonderful experience. We saw more than 100 #waterfalls after it had rained the day before. Did you do this tour? https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Tahiti/#papenoo

#Iceland is a rugged and beautiful country. Its volcanic origin gives rise to #lava fields, geysers, #waterfalls , lava tubes, #hotpools and beautiful #scenery . Here is a detailed itinerary for the Golden Circle and a Reykjavik walking tour. https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Iceland/

The town of Victoria Falls in #Zimbabwe has the world's largest #waterfalls with the world's largest sheet of falling water. But there is much more to see and do.

Fall Break – Sørsidevegen & Solvorn

Last autumn, we stayed for a week along the Lustrafjorden in western Norway. On one of the days, we decided to do a donut around our arm of the fjord to explore the villages of Skjolden, Ornes and Solvorn.

Sørsidevegen is a tiny road that winds along the fjord from Skjolden, a town at the very end of Lustrafjorden, past Feigefossen (the waterfall we could see from our rental across the fjord) and ends at the village of Ornes. We wanted to check out the Urnes Stave Church but there was a construction crew outside so we just took a quick peek before we boarded an old ferry that chugged us across Lustrafjorden to the very cute village of Solvorn.

Here are some images captured along Sørsidevegen as well as in the village of Solvorn last fall.

Roads cutting through mountain ranges and waterfalls
Do they cause landslides and reactivate old ones?

Temporary fix for Waterfall Way at Gordonville slip site
"Waterfall Way has reopened between Bellingen and Dorrigo after temporary repairs to the Gordonville slip site. The temporary fix consists of a gravel filled shipping container wall, two containers high and eight containers long, attached to the rockface using nine high-strength steel anchors drilled deep into the rockface." >>

Could road constructions be more hazardous than an earthquake in terms of mass movement?

"In this study, we report a distinct correlation of mass movements and major road constructions that explicitly shows human impact on mountainous environments which are under anthropogenic disturbance recently. Our results further suggest that slope instabilities increased drastically after major service road constructions for hydroelectric power plants and as well as other road extension works."

"We also stress that the impact of road construction can disturb the natural slope equilibrium to an extent comparable with moderate (larger than 6 Mw) earthquakes."

"Such an observation implies that human activities can have a large, if not even dominant, impact on landscape evolution and the natural regime of surface processes. This is part of the definition of “Anthropocene,” an age where our society shapes nature for our purposes, frequently at the risk of damaging ourselves."
