The upper fall, thirty-four feet in height, declines a little from the perpendicular; the rocks rise out of the channel, and there is one like a pillar, horizontal at the top, by which many persons have passed from one side to the other.

In the first, the water is perpetually agitated as if it were boiling; in the second, it is covered with a constant foam ; in the third, which is the largest, being 22 feet in diameter, it appears as if spread out in a large cooler.

The lower caldron discharges the water into the last fall through a similar aperture, having the appearance of a door or large window hewn out of the rock.

The most complete view of this magnificent scene, and of the deep and finely-wooded dell, is from the bottom of the great fall, where it has the appearance of a prodigious fountain gushing from the solid rock.

Several years ago, a gentleman fell into the same caldron, and was extricated with the greatest difficulty.The water flow of the Linn is now diminished by a recent hydro-electric scheme commissioned in 1993.
