At 35 feet it is taller than the typical Vermont waterfall of about 30 feet, ranking 64th of 158 with a recorded height. The water comes down as a slide, where the water glides down a smooth, inclined rock surface.
The Northeastern Highlands are the mountains of northern New England and the Adirondacks, with spruce-fir on the summits and northern hardwood forest of maple, beech and birch below, and countless lakes and boulder-strewn brooks.
