Mohawk Cascade

Description

Mohawk Cascade is a classic plunge waterfall with cascades both above and below, the total height being 6m and the width 3.7m at its widest point. Flow from the upper cascades enters an extremely boggy area (wear waders or follow the game trails closely) which, when saturated, collects above the lower falls. Flow is seasonal as the bog has to be totally saturated before there is flow here.
