Cataract Cove

Cataract Cove, Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska.

Although it is hard to photograph, I love this cove!  The cove is surrounded by 500 to 1,000 foot high granite walls covered waterfalls that drop straight into the ocean – it is an amazing sight and sound.  Not only are there lots of waterfalls, but we also spotted a number of mountain goats.

Did I hear someone say, “Cliff Dive!” – ?

Nice capture Ron. We have a Cataract Canyon here in Marin County, California. I don’t know how the word “cataract” gets into the names of wild places.

Gary – burr! That water is deep enough.

I was thinking the same thing Jim – there is a Cataract Glacier in Prince William Sound – interesting name.

It may be difficult to capture but as usual you have done it beautifully.
