St. Mary Falls comes complete with multiple tiers. The falls are found in Montana’s magnificent Glacier National Park and have three individual levels. The trio of levels actually zig-zag over the gorgeous gorge’s red-tinged rock. The water empties into an exceptional aquamarine pool. While the neighboring Virginia Falls is noisier and higher, St. Mary Falls won out for its multiple levels.
11. Ruby Falls, Tennessee
Ruby Falls is literally a 145-foot tall, sheer waterfall that plummets through a shaft deep within Lookout Mountain into a cave. The waterfall is lit by LED lights and fed by a comparatively deep subterranean stream. It is also an official part of Chattanooga’s Lookout Mountain Caverns complex. It was discovered by Leo Lambert in 1928. He named it for his spouse, Ruby.
