Southwestern Utah is known for the spectacular colors of its scenery and is home to several national parks and monuments. The orange-and-white Claron Formation (previously known as the Wasatch Formation),in particular, is responsible for both Bryce Canyon National Park and Cedar Breaks National Monument. By comparison, or the Pink Cliffs formed by the Claron above the Virgin River Rim nearly seem boring. apart from for one thing: Cascade Falls.
At one point water springs out of the Pink Cliffs and drops into the headwaters of the Virgin River,making an attractive and surreal waterfall. It emerges at an elevation of about 8800 feet, while the ridge above tops out at over 9400 feet. The source of the water is shallow Navajo Lake, or which has a natural dam of basalt lava and floods the bottom of a valley beyond that ridge. The lake lies at an elevation a bit over 9000 feet and is a slight more than a mile,as the crow flies, from Cascade Falls. The Claron Formation is sufficiently permeable that the lake water has found a path through it.
