Firefall was not water+Sun.
The hotel up there would dump burning embers down at that spot.

Looks to be a mix of photos of the burning ember “Fire Falls” and some nice photos of sunlight on water falls.
The wiki description of the Fire Falls was very interesting with the history, etc.
A hotel did the fire falls when they were forced to stop it by the park. Later that same winter heavy snows damaged the hotel. That summer, during repairs, the hotel burned to the ground. In part fed by a pile of wood used for the fire falls!
So is what was written in the post a partial hoax with the whole sun part of the effect description. That all those pics were taken before they stopped them from doing this every year via artificial means?
I’m not saying the poster perp’d the hoax themselves, I’m just trying to be clear if whoever authored the description in this email floating around the internet was saying something deliberately false.
Thanks much for that link Southack. I am such a sucker for stuff like that that comes through my emails. At least the photos are great.
Thanks again Southack.
