I just remember the time when, we (with my colleagues) descended towards this waterfall sometimes in the year 2010. I just remember the rock (on the first picture above) along this river (Bayog river) where I am standing atop on it... While I am standing, I felt asleep for seconds of time and felt the cool and fresh air from the falls...After a nap of seconds, when I look-up the cleared blue sky, I saw the clouds above us compressing and gradually becoming gray and then turning into dark... so, I rushed moving and stay on the other side of the river calling my colleagues who are swimming to go back to the safer place.This waterfall is really a very amazing but a scary one due to its huge sound created by the impact of the water when falling down... the surrounding colored-grey and dark-brown cliffs around it, where the shrubs, grasses and secondary trees are growing, were made me stirred of. This time, I had felt nervous and my heart starts beating faster...I'm thinking where to exit quickly to escape in case of a sudden flood...Superstitiously, there came little and colorful (blue, yellow, and white) and beautiful butterflies’ from the bottom of the waterfall and two lovely (2) girls playing at the river before the waterfalls, seen by my friend... These observations were just told by my friend the time we were already in Cagayan de Oro City.There are some hidden story behind this majestic waterfalls…which were narrated to me by my uncle (my mother cousin), a native of this place.If somebody has plan to go for a visit, be sure that he/she has Camera to bring for pictorials. It's because, he/she is not sure if he/she can have a revisit for the next due to the difficulties of the access to this falls. His/her visit might be the first and the last... a "once in a blue moon".This story is a real… an experience of mine which I could never forget.
