Is that taller than Niagara Falls? Isn't Niagara east of the Mississippi?

It’s thirty feet higher than Niagara. Way less volume though.

Kayaker wanna run it, but I don't think anyone has taken that falls yet. But ithica is popular in areas I think.. .but there's soooooo many eastern rivers that are unknown, unfound or underappricated
