Pics

Barron falls, or Barron valley waterfall, something like that. What you can't actually see is the big ass hydroelectricity plant that's up there. Judging from the angle I'd say that this shot was taking from the sky train, or somewhere near its route as the cable cars landed you almost directly in front of it.
If you enlarge this photo, you can actually see the pylons for the cable cars that took you up. There were about 30 over all, so this should give you an impression of the scale and distance.
I'm no photography expert, but this guy mist have done something funky with a wide angle lens as the angles on the two side rails in this picture were nowhere near this extreme. Still, I've been here, this is one of the first places you can view the falls from in this clarity.
