Engaging and Renewing Waterfalls to Tour and Preserve

This ArcGIS StoryMap presents six waterfalls and four waterfall-related museums framed through the eyes of the first European or American explorer who encountered them and the indigenous people groups that surround them. First, this project examines the European ideas about each waterfall, the ways that these interactions changed the Falls area. Next, it identifies the tourist resort experiences and the landscape ideas promoted through exploration. Finally, this story compares the ideas of indigenous peoples' identities related to the falls.
