Bridalveil Fall showing a huge mist cloud created by the water hitting the base of the falls. The principal source of Bridalveil Fall is Ostrander Lake, some 10 miles to the south.

From Wikipedia: When the wind blows briskly, the waterfall will appear to be falling sideways. During lesser water flow the falls often don't reach the ground. Because of this, the Ahwahneechee Native Americans called this waterfall Pohono, which means Spirit of the Puffing Wind.
