Details of the beautiful Virgin Falls a waterfall of pure water that cascades down a rock escarpment along the Tofino Creek on Vancouver Island. It falls 53 metres, which is 174 feet, down to the pool below, and these falls are actually located in a transition area of the Clayoquot Sound UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in British Columbia, Canada.
A waterfall that is composed of pure water can be difficult to find in a world where industrial pollution is everywhere and the growing world population can pollute the natural water sources. Pure water however, is also very important, and when it is found, it is often something that needs to be protected. Pure water has a few distinct qualities to it that make it different from any other source of water.
Pure water does not conduct electricity as well as other forms of water as it contains less elements to it to pass electricity through. ... continue below the picture...
... Pure water also has no taste and no smell so you can drink right from Virgin Falls if you wish. Pure water is also very useful in industry and that is why other falls can undergo purification techniques to make the water pure as it is better for industrial purposes.
Virgin Falls however, is not used for any industrial purposes, but is part of a transition area in the Clayoquot Sound UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on Vancouver Island. That means that the area around it is used for sustainable development, but it cannot harm the pure water that makes up Virgin Falls.
