This is the third installment of shots taken on Table Mountain Plateau near Oroville last Wednesday. This one includes a some of the water falls and cliffs in the area. The first 3 shots are of Ravine falls which is appropriately named as it sits in a narrow and steep Ravine. It was surprisingly dark near the base of Ravine Falls. The next 5 shots are of the cliff area around and of Phantom falls. Phantom falls is the tallest of the water falls I saw during this hike. It is apparent how the harder basaltic rock hasn't eroded as much as the softer rock below the falls. The final 2 shots in this series are of Lower Ravine falls which is the smallest of the falls I saw on this hike. The next post will include more falls and some other images from the hike.
Also see the previous 2 post for more info and some of the flower shots of in this area

Hi Cwilson341
Thanks for checking out the images of the Waterfalls and for the comment. The areas around the waterfalls where pretty rugged, other areas on the plateau where fairly flat.
