Falls of the Pool

As you make your way up the Valley of a Thousand Falls, the guides mention three "must-see" waterfalls. White Falls at the start of the upward journey, Emperor Falls near the end, and Falls of the Pool in the middle. Falls of the Pool was my favorite. The pool near the bottom and the double falls that it forms makes it interesting. It also wasn't overwhelmed without any direct or back lighting being hidden deep into the river canyon. Emperor was spectacular, huge and I could get right up close but it felt like an overwhelming blast of water. I don't think there are other options, really, to view these falls. It isn't visible earlier in the canyon up until you're right on top of it and you can't walk around the top or base.
