Nature
Angel Falls is a scenic waterfall on Mountain Brook in western Maine, in Franklin County’s White Mountains. It descends in plunging tiers that drop ninety feet in all, framed by surrounding cliffs about one hundred fifteen feet high. The water passes through a gap in the cliff about twenty-five feet wide, helping create the falls’ distinctive form. When the flow is favorable, the white stream spreads into a shape many people see as an angel, giving the falls their name. Although it is sometimes mistakenly called Maine’s tallest waterfall, Angel Falls is instead notable as one of the state’s best-known and most dramatic falls.
