Factory for Highest Waterfalls Ever - a photo on Flickriver

            Meet Mount Roraima, at the junction between Venezuela, Guyana, and Brasil.
It is one example of a table mountain (or tepuy), the inspiration for Conan Doyle's Lost World, the host of some of the highest waterfalls in the world as it's always raining at the top and its walls are about 1.000 meters high, and the perfect place to start the Waterfalls chapter of our adventures.
