Where the Waterfalls Are
Canyon sits in or near the Caprock Canyons and Rolling Plains area of Texas. Where the High Plains break off along the Caprock Escarpment, streams have cut colorful canyons into red sandstone and shale. Silver Falls in Crosby County, near Crosbyton, drops over a ledge along the White River below the caprock. Randall County is home to Palo Duro Canyon, and Briscoe County to Caprock Canyons, both known for dramatic badlands scenery. Falls in this region are small and often intermittent, running mainly after thunderstorms, but they offer a striking contrast to the flat plains above. Stonewall and Taylor counties hold isolated falls further southeast on the Rolling Plains. Read the Texas waterfall guide.
