The tallest waterfall in North America is Yosemite Falls, a major attraction in Yosemite National Park, which was established in1890 as the first national park in the state of California, USA. Located in the Sierra Nevada mountains, Yosemite Falls drops 2,425 feet (739 meters) from the top of its upper fall (right) to the base of its lower fall (left). Two park visitors heading on a trail to the lower falls give scale to this stunning scenic view from Yosemite Valley. The best time to see the falls is in late spring, especially during May, when the water flow is usually at its peak.
