Name of Waterfall

Immigration Falls

Description

This is the second of three small waterfalls along the West Fork Miller River that can be seen from the West Fork Miller trail. The falls occur where the river pretty much drops over a massive boulder, and slams into another one on the way down. Though not really an attractive waterfall (when I observed it at least), it's close to the road, so should it be better looking, or fuller at any given time, access is relatively easy. I include this fall in the Database only because it's been recognized and named by the local kayaking community. It was raining when I visited the falls, and scrambling down to the river for a decent picture would have been prohibitively dangerous.
