Silver Ripple Cascade is a 30-foot waterfall on Black Brook in Oxford County, Maine, in the Northeastern Highlands region. It lies about 12.9 miles northwest of Mexico and roughly 75 miles north of Portland as the crow flies.
At 30 feet it is taller than the typical Maine waterfall of about 29 feet, ranking 37th of 80 with a recorded height. By form it is 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. Fast mountain streams drop over granite and gneiss ledges in chains of falls and pools.
