The 200-foot tall Palouse Falls are situated in southeastern Washington. If you look at the falls from the right angle, you might think the water is coming right out of the rocks. In fact, the water comes from the Palouse River. Deemed the state’s official waterfall, this cascade was actually created by various floods that occurred back during the Ice Age.
This is the continental USA’s tallest waterfall. It is a favorite tourist stop in popular Yosemite National Park and the water here drops 2,425 feet. Yosemite Falls features three different sections amidst the meadows and granite cliffs. Upper Yosemite Fall is reportedly one of the highest on the planet and rushed from a height of 1430 feet above the ground.
