- Waterfall Record
I started keeping my waterfall record in May 2009, though I had been visiting waterfalls for some time before that. The first waterfall I ever visited was Tahquamenon Falls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, way back when. After that, I really didn’t see many waterfalls until 2006. Even then, the love of waterfalls didn’t really kick in until 2007. After that, I started traveling more, and waterfalls became a focus of my wanderings. I discovered that where there are waterfalls, there are many other cool, unexpected things.
