This is the Huka Waterfall.

It is but one of the many striking falls to be met with in the Islands.
New Zealand is a land of streams of every size and kind, and almost all these streams and rivers have three qualities in common--they are cold, swift, and clear.

Cold and swift they must be as they descend quickly to the sea from heights more or less great.

Clear they all are, except immediately after rain, or when the larger rivers are in flood.

In flood-time most of them become raging torrents.
