A fact from Darwin Falls appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 15 January 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Darwin Falls (pictured) is the tallest waterfall in Death Valley National Park and features a rare example of riparian greenery in the driest place in North America?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/January.

I would've never guessed that waterfalls could exist in Death Valley. - Patricknoddy 2:27pm, January 14, 2007

I was surprised too, then I found out there are at least 4 perennial streams and a few waterfalls (although I don't know if the other falls are also perennial). If want to see how crammed this natural feature is, just check out the sat photo and how it's a small sliver of green wedged into a very bleak landscape. I took all the photos and I had to show how the approach goes from nothing to a riparian area complete with waterfall in only 20-30 minutes of walking. --Bobak 20:01, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
