Salmon River Gorge
March 1983 Expedition
Split Falls, North Cataract
 

      
A close-up view of the north
      cataract at Split Falls. This branch of the falls carries roughly
      two-thirds of the river volume. Because we were visiting during
      the peak of Spring runoff, we could hear and feel huge boulders
      grinding along the river bed, and occasionally bursting over
      the falls.
