Are you talking about the one at one of the tourist trap caves on the westside?

Do you mean the Madison Formation in Dark Canyon? I don't know if it's really a waterfall though. Hopefully ElkHunter comes along. He used to live in that area.

There's Bridal Veil Falls in Spearfish Canyon and then there are a few miscellaneous ones in the Black Hills during moist years. Do you mean the spillway at Canyon Lake?

Oh yeah! Now I know what you're talking about! I've never been there. It seems kinda tourist-y. Doesn't mean you shouldn't check it out though!

Not to change the subject, but I was browsing in the Wyoming forum, and I guess ElkHunter had some medical issues and was in the middle of moving. Hopefully things are going well for him!

Yeah, I had received a DM about him and I think we should keep him in our thoughts and prayers. I hope all is well!

I've been there. You walk in a cave that goes straight in, not down like caves do, then at the end there's a waterfall. A big thrilling 5 minutes and I left. Tourist trap.

Yes, there are better things to do in the hills. You can't even see the whole waterfall. Was sorta peaceful though.
