Niagara Falls without water, 1969
For six months in 1969 North Americas most iconic waterfall was purposely “de-watered”.
This was done by the US army corps of engineers, because they wanted to conduct a geological survey of the falls’ rock face.
They were concerned that it was becoming too destabilized from erosion.
In order to do this the army had to built a 600ft (182 m) dam across the Niagara River.
This dam consisted of 27,800 tons of rock.
In November 1969 in front of 2,650 spectators, the temporary dam was dynamited, restoring the flow of water.

On October 1st, 1995, Robert Overacker set out on the upper Niagara River. His plan? Become the first to go over Niagara Falls on a Jet Ski!
-
Overacker entered the water near the
Canadian Niagara Power Plant. At the very brink of the falls, he attempted to discharge a rocket propelled parachute that was on his back. His theory was the parachute would allow for a safe landing away from the brutal undertow at the base of the Horseshoe Falls, as well as brace him from a 170-foot plummet.
-
Unfortunately, the rocket propelled parachute malfunctioned and Robert Overacker did not survive his daredevil attempt. He was the 15th person since 1901 to intentionally go over Niagara Falls in or on a device.

Interesting read with stunning pictures

Is there a more breathtaking sight than Niagara Falls at full, gushing force? There is actually - the very same falls drained, as they were in 1969. This is what it looked like - and what scientists found.

Did you know that Niagara Falls is actually made up of three separate waterfalls?
Can you name the biggest of them? Hint: It's pictured here!

An awesome falls in Jasper National Park in western Canada

➤ Sunwapta Falls is a pair of waterfalls of the Sunwapta River located in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. The falls are accessible via a 600 metres (2,000 feet) access road off the Icefields Parkway, which connects Jasper and Banff National Parks. The falls have a drop of about 18.5 metres (61 feet). Sunwapta is a Stoney language word that means "turbulent water". The falls is most spectacular in the late spring when the spring melt is at its peak.

Waterfalls

Having a deep connection to water all my life it was only natural that when thinking about an experience I could provide to travellers, and locals of, southwestern Ontario, that water in some form would be involved. Waterfalls, despite their usual roar and chaos are very soothing and mesmerizing to me.

Booked exclusively through Airbnb Experiences

After picking you up after breakfast, at your accommodations or other prearranged pick up location, we will travel in my spacious 2017 Subaru Outback (other vehicles can be arranged for larger groups) to nearby Hamilton, the Waterfall Capital of the World, home to over 100 waterfalls. We will stop at several picturesque waterfalls for pictures and short hikes. Local area geology and historical facts will be shared and discussed. We will also stop at a bakery and market for a short break. We will continue along the Niagara Escarpment and through Niagara Wine Country. We will stop at a small, award winning, winery for a wine tasting before continuing on to the Welland Canal which allows ships to transit between the Great Lakes. Our final stop will be the world famous Niagara Falls. You will have plenty of time to get pictures and bathe in the mist of falls as we will spend several hours here walking along the edge of the falls and enjoying the very touristy Clifton Hill. You may wish to explore on your own world famous attractions like the White Water Walk, Behind the Falls tour or the Maid of the Mist ( now Hornblower Cruises). We will return to Toronto direct from Niagara Falls.
