Where the Waterfalls Are
Dillingham sits in or near the Southwest Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula area of Alaska. West of Cook Inlet the landscape opens into lake country, volcanic peaks and tundra, and waterfalls become rarer and far more remote. The most famous is Brooks Falls, a low ledge on the outlet of Brooks Lake in Katmai, where brown bears gather to catch salmon leaping the drop. Other named falls in the Bethel and Dillingham areas sit on rivers draining the uplands behind Bristol Bay and the Kuskokwim delta, and Kodiak and the Aleutians add a few on rugged island coastlines. Almost none of these are reachable by road; floatplanes, boats and guided trips are the usual means of access. Read the Alaska waterfall guide.
