====High Shoals Waterfall is an example of a Cascade Waterfall. This waterfall is consider a Cascade Waterfall because the water falls in stages and stays realtively close to the existing rock.(How Stuff Works) Though not clearly visible in the above picture water surges around the rock outcrop at the top of waterfall( it is at the top left in the picture) about once every 30 seconds, while it flows over the rest of the waterfall at a steady rate. This waterfall produces a great amount of water spray relative to its overall size due to a boulder that is located about two thirds the way down the face of the waterfall. High Shoals Waterfall is approximately 100 feet tall. (Mountain Travel Guide)
