Additional Details:
From Cataract House can be seen the bed of the Niagra River, which at this point is a succession of shells, from which in many places large rocks progress to within a few feet of the surface. As the river contracts and shallows it increases in velocity and becomes a seething cauldron, boiling, tossing, leaping and swirling in mad abandon and irresistible force
