New
Mexico Waterfalls Photo Gallery
Some of New Mexico’s
beautiful waterfalls

Brazos
Falls, New Mexico’s highest, descends 1,800 feet in two tiers.

The deep sheer-walled gorge below
Resumidero Falls is peaceful and quite secluded.
This falls is identified by a
forest service sign along forest road 93 in the northern Jemez Mountains.

About a mile below Resumidero
Falls is 50-foot high Echo Falls.
Her brother Box Falls in the far upper left-hand corner above, is half
her hieght.
Leaping over Echo Falls is the
last thing Rito Resumidero does before it conflues with the Rio Puerco.

My
daughter takes a breather before we climb out of Lichen Falls secret
sheer-walled chamber.
This
60-foot high waterfall is on the Rio Puerco about a quarter of a mile upstream
from Echo Falls.
