About American Falls

The American Falls is the second largest of the three waterfalls that together are known as Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–United States border. Unlike the much larger Horseshoe Falls, of which approximately 90% is in Ontario, Canada, and 10% in the U.S. state of New York, the American Falls is entirely within the United States.

About Delphi Falls Lower

Delphi Falls is a two-tiered waterfall located in the 66 acres (27 ha) Delphi Falls County Park on the East Branch of Limestone Creek southeast of Delphi Falls and west-southwest of Union. The lower falls are 62 feet (19 m) tall, while the upper are 54 feet (16 m).
