Chocolate Falls, also know as Grand Falls, just east of Flagstaff Arizona on the Navajo Reservation. The Little Colorado River drops over 185 feet at this point, not far from where it joints in Colorado River inside the Grand Canyon. Surprisingly few people are aware of this formation or visit it, perhaps due to its seasonal nature.

Captured with a 5D Mark II, 24mm TS-E II lens, 8 stop ND Filter (No HDR)

Grand Falls of the Little Colorado River. Fantastic spot that very few people visit. The river was not flowing but the light was good and the view was still great. The Little Colorado River flows northwest from eastern Arizona, ultimately joining the Colorado River near the eastern end of the Grand Canyon. Grand Falls (also called Chocolate Falls, due to the large amount of sediment in the water) was formed when a lava flow from a nearby volcanic crater deposited massive amounts of basalt in the river bed and temporarily dammed the river. You can see the basalt on the left side of the river (the dark rock) and the sandstone layers on the right (light tan).

Taken with a Phase One P45 on a Phase One 645 camera w/Mamiya 35mm lens, singh ray blue n' gold polarizer and stacked singh ray ND filters for the sky (2xND and 1xND).

Recently returned to this spot to shoot it while flowing:
