This is a very seasonal falls that flows directly into the Potomac. In fact, it may only run after a rainstorm, though in the spring I have seen it running pretty well. In the winter, it becomes ice as seen in the pictures. This waterfall is actually in WV, but the only view is from MD. It appears that this is a "run-off" falls from the airport just above, hence the name. It is still pretty when it is running full. I will try to post a photo this spring of it full.
