Text Appearing After Image:
Guayaba Falls. canyon clear to the bottom, whish distance we believe to be fully the five hundred feet claimed. Nature has carved out of the rock formation at the bottom a great basin, into which the water crashes down mid small clouds of spray and flows rapidly out of the narrow end of the canyon. One can imagine no more inspiring sight after hours of climbing over precipitious moimtain trails and hearing the roar of falling waters in the distance, than to come suddenly in view a waterfall like thi^ d iring the torrential rainy periods. The setting is there the year roimd, though it sometimes lacks the necessary water to make it as famous as other falls not so high. The Guayaba River, also the Mayari and numerous smaller streams pursue their tortuous way through this wild region of Eastern Cuba and supply the water which goes over these beautiful falls, ai-d from which the large sugar mill at Preston, the property of the United Fruit Company, gets its water supply. The view looking through the canyon towards Nipe Bay is beautiful, and recalls im.pressions of the great "Niagara Gorge," and visions that these same falls of Guayaba have been in the distant past, or will be in the future, as great as the falls of Niagara in our own country. Away in the distance on a clear day can be seen the baeutiful blue waters of the Eay cf .â ipe, and along its shores the thriving busy life of m.aking sugar at Preston and Banes, fifteen n iles away.
