Johannesburg Falls is the largest of the many small volume falls coming off Johannesburg Mountain. The small stream drops a total of around 2400', making it one of the tallest waterfalls in North America. While the height is amazing, the small volume of water makes this waterfall sort of a footnote to the beauty of the Cascade Pass area.
