Thanks to Lim Yian Swee, (who was with friends Simon Jong and Wee Liang Cheng) who spotted the ‘entranceway’; we discovered a delightful hidden waterfall at Sungai Sarawak Kiri at Borneo Highlands on Sunday morning.

I had been down this route many times before and had gone past the entrance without a second glance and I’m glad that we stopped this time otherwise we would have missed this secret natural wonder. I wondered how many other wonders we must have missed in the course of our life taking the well-trodden path. Sometimes it’s the path less traveled that might had made all the difference. Hmmm.

We fail to see the wonders around us due to our narrowness and it is this narrowness, either due to the fake that we are 2engrossed with ourselves or with what we are doing that we fail to see what is around us.

Anyway, nice waterfall, what shall we name it? Oh Yes!! The Francis Falls :P
You're absolutely right about the path less traveled. there is a very good reason why some of the best things in life are hidden:

Things that aren't hidden tend to wind up being turned into sleazy tourist resorts faster than you can say, "Commercial development is nauseatingly out of control..."

Oops...there went another one.
whoa... very cool.
Beautiful. There was little sense of perspective in the first pic and I thought it was much bigger than it is until I saw the pics with you. Nice find.
