This 100' tall waterfall feeds into the Saco River
You will find Ripley Falls at Crawford Notch State Park, within the White Mountain National Forest. Located within my home state of New Hampshire, this 100-foot-tall waterfall is situated along Avalanche Brook, which feeds into the Saco River. When the falls are not frozen, the face of the rock waterfall is at about a 60-degree angle. The person you see in this photo is me. I was wearing micro spikes, and where you see me in this photo is about as far up as you would want to go without proper climbing equipment.
The best way to shoot the falls is with a wide-angle lens. However, after shooting some photos of just the waterfall, I felt like the photos weren’t doing it justice. There was nothing to put the waterfall to scale. Since I was alone, there was no one I could have stand near the falls to show the size difference. So, I set up my tripod over the frozen brook, set the timer, and climbed onto Ripley Falls to show some size comparison.
