Another One (Almost) Bites It … And Other Tidbits

Another person almost dies going over a waterfall. The report indicates he was trying to cross the river above Corlieu Falls and fell down a 30 ft waterfall. Corlieu Falls is much bigger than 30 ft high, so I guess he just fell down one of the tiers of the waterfall.

In other news … It is a bit late to tell you this but if you are heading to the CA state fair this weekend, my photo “Pool of Cold Fire” is featured in the Placer County display. Be sure to check it out if you can.

Also, I have several photos printed in Ann Marie Brown’s newest edition of her California Waterfalls book. I was quite excited to be a part of her latest edition. Her book is still the ultimate (printed) source for CA waterfalls.

    Thanks very much Mary and Jean. It is the Pool of Cold Fire on the North Fork of the North Fork American River, near Blue Canyon.
