Impressive is right

Do I see at least five waterfalls? Is that hundreds of feet high? I'm impressed.

Re: Impressive is right

Thanks for the comment. I actually don't remember how many are right there and is a bit hard to make out in the photo. Yes, i would estimate those cliffs there to be some three to four hundred feet high, rough estimate. That is basically the head wall for Amilpulco Valley on the southwest side of Ixta. The valley is gorgeous and has many waterfalls in it. I have seen these cliffs twice. The first time the wind was blasting at them so hard, no water was touching the ground there but was being turned into spray halfway down. It was like a waterfall falling up, almost. Now i just want to see if they freeze over in winter.
